CSS - Span Tooltips Within Adx Css Dropdown Menu
Hi folks
I am using the excellent Adx CSS drop-down menu, which is great. One thing I'd like to add to it though, is mouseover tooltips giving more info on each link, using the span method suggested by Meyerweb and others: div#menu a:hover span { etc.... This works beautifully in FF and IE5. But IE6, bless its heart, will not display any span words in a submenu: http://ied.gospelcom.net/adxmenu.html If I substitute li:hover span in the code, then it does display every set of span words in the whole submenu. I've tried various tricks, including stuff in the IE only extra style sheet that AdX uses, but with no success. Any ideas of stuff to try? Many thanks Tony Similar TutorialsI am trying to make tooltips, using PHP code inside <span>. Is there possibility to control the position in <style>, to avoid possibility for the box (tooltip), not to be completely visible, I mean, when the word that has to be described is at the right bottom of the window, box will change it's position and will be placed at the upper and left position. The box would have to be placed at the position it can have to be readable. Hi I'm struggeling with the following: I have some span elements inside a td. If I apply padding to a span then the padding is flowing outside the td (above and below the borders of the td). Why does that happen and is there a way to make the td to autogrow to fit all the span's inside? Se example code below Code: <table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" align="center" style="width:300px; margin-top:50px;"> <tr> <td style="background-color:gray; text-align:center; border:1px solid black;"> <span style="margin-right:20px;">First</span> <span style="margin-right:20px;">1</span> <span style="margin-right:20px;">2</span> <span style="margin-right:20px; background-color:orange; padding:10px;">3</span> <span style="margin-right:20px;">4</span> <span style="margin-right:20px;">5</span> <span style="">Last</span> </td> </tr> </table> ******* UPDATE ******* I found this link today: http://css-discuss.incutio.com/?page=FormattingContexts which says (among other things): ************************* Only one thing impacts the vertical space between inline elements: the line height. Normally, the line height is based upon the line height for the text in that line, or the height/padding/border/margin of any replaced items. The element on a line with the largest line height or replaced height is the one to define the vertical space that line takes up. Height, padding, border or margins on text do not impact the line height or the container height. Instead, borders, padding and margins overlap from line to line. If you want to give an inline text element some padding and border, make sure you give it some extra line height, too, or else it will overlap with whatever else is above or below it. ************************* So does that rule mean that I have no way to make my TD autogrow in relation to the padding applied to the SPAN in the example above? Is there any working workarounds for this...? I'm using the suggestions of those on here and using the http://www.dynamicsitesolutions.com...2/#relatedLinks menu (I'm a little confused over what the differences are but that's the least of my problems) What I want is a 2nd level drop down menu, but I'm clueless on how to go about it..??? Help!! I am trying to design this website: nitrocanine .com/D/DDesign and the dropdown menus won't work in IE, while they work in Chrome, Safari, Firefox... does anyone know how to make them work in IE as well?? You can view the source and see the css coding and the relevant HTML. Hi all -- I've used plenty of CSS in the past, but I'm currently working on a dropdown menu that is more challenging than I had anticipated. A few things I need to fix that I just cannot figure out: 1) The last <li> in the dropdown seems to be overlapping my border 2) I want to put at least 10px of padding on the left hand side of the dropdown menu 3) I need to turn the carrot in front of each menu item to #ff9900 4) Whenever I try to increase or decrease the space between menu items, it seems as though white lines appear between my menu items. In the interest of full disclosure, I found this CSS out somewhere on the web, and I've been trying to customize it since I didn't feel I had the knowledge to build it from scratch. Normally, I'd prefer to create something on my own, but limited time and knowledge prevented me from doing so this time around. Attached below are my HTML and CSS code. I tried to post a link, but the forum will not allow me. If you can offer any assistance, I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks in advance for your time!

I'm looking to add a drop down menu for my site but Instead of the menu dropping down i want it to go up and I found a few things about it but nothing really helped me I was wondering how can i get a css drop down to go up? sorry if this is the wrong forum to post on.. but i am clueless on this part i am going to be starting on the script soon just wanted to know how to code the script to make it go up Thank you Smackadoo First I am using Dreamweaver MX2004. I am still new to CSS, have not used it much. Still using tables (yeah i know) for the layout. Mainly because when I've tried positioning in the past, IE doesn't display it right. Layers don't seem to work for me! What I'd like to know is: can I use CSS (the son of suckerfish dropdowns) for my drop down menu in a separate HTML file that would be saved as a library item? I'd like the nav separate so I can update it easily. Should I also use a separate CSS file that would only be associated with the nav? Is necessary to have an external css sheet, if it only applys to this nav? The nav would get dropped into a table row under the top banner. My issue is: will it get positioned right ? And will it view ok in IE??? Hope I explained this right. I fear that what I have already coded, would get messed up if I do this! But due to search engine optimization, I'd like to avoid a fully functioning javascript dropdown. If you have a better suggestion/usage for a dropdown horizontal nav, I'd appreciate your ideas! Thanks for the advice! Valerie i'm having a problem with a couple attributes for my CSS dropdowns. view the page here (both CSS and XHTML are on the same page) specifically my .hoverBase:hover .hoverLaunch {} class which reads as such: Code: .hoverBase:hover .hoverLaunch {
display:block;
position:absolute;
top:15px;
left:-3px;
width:70px;
border:3px solid #000000;
text-align: center;
z-index: 30;
}
the problem is that IE6 will not display the .hoverLaunch class like FireBird does, in fact, it does not display at all. Another awesome feature of IE6 is that the :hover i have applied on the .hoverbase does not work either. Any help is appreciated. Thanks in advance. Need some help with some dropdown menus. I have been reading many of the tutorials on other sites. I have come up with this code for my drop down menus: Code:
.dropmenu {
position: absolute;
left: -1500px;
visibility: visible;
z-index: 101;
float: left;
width: 122px;
border-width: 1px;
border-style: solid;
border-color: #BFBFBF;
background-color: #FFFFFF;
}
.dropmenu ul {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
list-style-type: none;
}
.dropmenu li {
display: inline;
}
.dropmenu a, .dropmenu a:visited, .dropmenu a:active {
display: block;
width: 120px;
padding: 2px;
margin: 1px;
font-family: Arial;
font-size: 10px;
font-weight: normal;
text-align: center;
text-decoration: none;
color: #000000;
background-color: #D4D4D4;
}
.dropmenu a:hover {
padding: 2px;
margin: 1px;
font-family: Arial;
font-size: 10px;
font-weight: normal;
text-align: center;
text-decoration: none;
color: #000000;
background-color: #BFBFBF;
}
but no matter how much I adjust settings that I know, I cannot get the dropdowns to show up below my original buttons, they always show up to the right hand side. Can someone here please point me in the right direction... Hi, on my site http://www.mattmdesign.com, sometimes when you mouseover the portfolio the menu appears in the wrong spot. someone also said that it is appearing on the left side of the page everytime with mozilla 1.0 Does anyone know how I can make it appear right under the porfolio link every time? Thanks, Matt Hi I am trying to create a drop down menu on my existing design. Code: http://dfinnema.com/help How would I add a drop down to Page 3 menu that looks like this: Code: http://dfinnema.com/help/images/dropdown_active.png Without the menu: Code: http://dfinnema.com/help/images/dropdown.png Any Ideas / Suggestions? :| I have been hunting around for an all CSS drop down menu that when you hover on the heading the menu expands down to show the heading 1 menu and if you hovered over the next menu item this expands to show that menu list instead a bit like the 'be the first to apply' on the right of this page, http://www.fish4.co.uk/iad/jobs search for say 'admin' just to get to the results page as this is where the menu is. the look is not important but the function is BUT.... i wanted to have many links in the drop down not just the one as in this example. this is the extracted code i have got so far that does what you see on this page.

Hey all, having a bit of trouble getting my drop down menu to display properly. It's modeled after the suckerfish menu, only modded a bit. Here's the site...hover over 'machines' to see what i'm talking about (have to use FF, i haven't added the JS for IE yet). The drop down is adopting the rollovers from the mainmenu, and I don't know what to change to make 'em different. Here's the CSS for the menu: Code:
#mainmenu {
width:780px;
height:41px;
margin:auto;
position:relative;
}
#mainmenu li.navigation {
width:78px;
height:41px;
float:left;
text-align:center;
background:#B8A488 url(images/mainmenu_roll.gif) no-repeat;
}
#mainmenu li.navigation a{
background:#66563D url(images/mainmenu_off.gif) no-repeat;
display:block;
text-decoration:none;
color:#F4F1E5;
height:31px;
padding-top:10px;
}
#mainmenu li.navigation a:hover {
background:transparent;
color:#66563D;
}
#mainmenu li#home {
background-image:url(images/home_roll.gif);
}
#mainmenu li#home a{
background-image:url(images/home_off.gif);
}
#mainmenu li#home a:hover {
background:transparent;
}
#mainmenu li#contact {
background-image:url(images/contact_roll.gif);
}
#mainmenu li#contact a {
background-image:url(images/mainmenu_off.gif);
}
#mainmenu li#contact a:hover {
background:transparent;
}

Thanks! I currently have a menu sprite set up that works. I also have a css dropdown menu set up as well in conjunction with the sprite menu. Issue: The dropdown does not work in IE6. It drops down behind the div just below it (never to see it until I hid the contents in the div below) even after adding z-index to nearly every attribute. After hiding the contents in the div below, I see the drop down, but as soon as I mouse over it, it disappears. This has been a headache for me and I need to get this resolved asap. Here is the CSS: aunkor.com/css.html Here is the HTML: aunkor.com/html.html Please help! >_< Everything works perfect expect one thing. When a mouse hovered on a link, dropdown links appear. Problem here is when I move my mouse towards the new links, they disappear before I reach them. Did I explain the problem well? No. Try the link.
