CSS - Problem With Submenu In Dropdown Menu
Hello,
I am working on a website and this website got a dropdown menu and this menu works fine! But when I want to make a submenu in the dropdown, it will not work correctly. The submenu is not placed in a new row, it is placed in the main dropdown menu. The next picture shows the problem: "Test" has to be a submenu from "Wie zijn we?", but it is placed just under it. URL I have used the next HTML-Code: Code: <!-- Navigation item -->
<ul>
<li><a href="#">Almelo Sociaal<!--[if IE 7]><!--></a><!--<![endif]-->
<!--[if lte IE 6]><table><tr><td><![endif]-->
<ul>
<li><a href="aswiezijnwe.html"target="iframe">Wie zijn we?</a>
<ul><li><a href="aswiezijnwe.html"target="iframe">test?</a></li></ul></li>
<li><a href="aswatdoenwe.html"target="iframe">Wat doen we?</a></li>
<li><a href="asbestuur.html"target="iframe">Organisatie</a></li>
<li><a href="asnieuws.html"target="iframe">Nieuws</a></li>
<li><a href="asactiviteiten.html"target="iframe">Activiteiten</a></li>
<li><a href="asafspraken.html"target="iframe">Afsprakenlijst</a></li>
</ul>
And I have used the next CSS-Code: Code: /*Drop-down menu*/
.nav2 {white-space:nowrap /*IE hack*/; float:left; width:954px; background:rgb(228,22,34); color:rgb(100,100,100); font-size:130%;} /*Color navigation bar normal mode*/
.nav2 ul {list-style-type:none;}
.nav2 ul li {float:left; z-index:auto !important /*Non-IE6*/; z-index:1000 /*IE6*/; border-right:solid 1px rgb(175,175,175);}
.nav2 ul li a {float:none; !important /*Non-IE6*/; float:left /*IE-6*/; display:block; height:2.1em; line-height:2.1em; padding:0 16px 0 16px; text-decoration:none; font-weight:normal; color: rgb(235,235,235);}
.nav2 ul li ul {display:none; border:none;}
/*Non-IE6 hovering*/
.nav2 ul li:hover {position:relative;} /*Sylvain IE hack*/
.nav2 ul li:hover a {background-color:rgb(228,22,34); text-decoration:none;} /*Color main cells hovering mode*/
.nav2 ul li:hover ul {display:block; width:10.0em; position:absolute; z-index:999; top:2.0em; margin-top:0.1em; left:0;}
.nav2 ul li:hover ul li a {white-space:normal; display:block; width:10.0em; height:auto; line-height:1.3em; margin-left:-1px; padding:4px 16px 4px 16px; border-left:solid 1px rgb(175,175,175); border-bottom: solid 1px rgb(175,175,175); background-color:rgb(240,240,240); font-weight:normal; color:rgb(100,100,100);} /*Color subcells normal mode*/
.nav2 ul li:hover ul li a:hover {background-color:rgb(175,175,175); text-decoration:none;} /*Color subcells hovering mode*/
/*IE6 hovering*/
.nav2 table {position:absolute; top:0; left:-1px; border-collapse:collapse;}
.nav2 ul li a:hover {position:relative /*Sylvain IE hack*/; z-index:1000 /*Sylvain IE hack*/; background-color:rgb(20,25,231); text-decoration:none;} /*Color main cells hovering mode*/
.nav2 ul li a:hover ul {display:block; width:10.0em; position:absolute; z-index:999; top:2.1em; t\op:2.0em; left:0; marg\in-top:0.1em;}
.nav2 ul li a:hover ul li a {white-space:normal; display:block; w\idth:10.0em; height:1px; line-height:1.3em; padding:4px 16px 4px 16px; border-left:solid 1px rgb(175,175,175); border-bottom: solid 1px rgb(175,175,175); background-color:rgb(240,240,240); font-weight:normal; color:rgb(50,50,50);} /*Color subcells normal mode*/
.nav2 ul li a:hover ul li a:hover {background-color:rgb(215,215,215); text-decoration:none;} /*Color subcells hovering mode*/
Can someone help me to fix the submenu in the dropdown menu? I think myself it is a problem in the CSS. Maybe something has to be added there, but I don't know what Similar TutorialsHi there... I have a friend that wants me to help them out with the menu on their site. here is the link of the template they bought. uniquedealz dot com/2020 (I hope it's okay I did it like that?) Under "Product" I need to add 4 items then under one of those items/links I am adding 20 more items/links. I found out in the source code I need to use the ul code to create the actual names of the links but I am getting confused with the css class part. Any help would be great. Should I include the style.css and layout.css? Thank you Julie Problem solved. Hiyas, I am a bit of a CSS noob, and I am having some problems so I thought I would post here and see if anyone could help me. I was given some code by a friend the other day to make a drop-down menu that comes down from a jpg-based button. Everything seemed to work, until I tried to make more than 1 menu. Here is my friend's website that uses the code - she can have 3 menus without anything glitching: www.hollyhostile.com The menu is controlled by a javascript file, I have been told this is CSS based but it may indeed be java, so sorry if this is in the wrong place. Her js menu file looks kind of like this: Code: //Contents for menu 1 var menu1=new Array() menu1[0]='<a href="http://www.hollyhostile.com/about.html">About Me</a>' menu1[1]='<a href="http://www.hollyhostile.com/faq.html">FAQ</a>' menu1[2]='<a href="http://www.hollyhostile.com/references.html">References</a>' menu1[3]='<a href="http://www.hollyhostile.com/pricing.html">Pricing</a>' //Contents for menu 2, var menu2=new Array() menu2[0]='<a href="http://www.hollyhostile.com/forum">Forum</a>' menu2[1]='<a href="http://www.hollyhostile.com/guestbook/">Guestbook</a>' menu2[2]='<a href="http://www.hollyhostile.com/blog/">Blog</a>' menu2[3]='<a href="http://www.youtube.com/hollyhostile">Tutorials</a>' Then she has this in her index.html file: Code: <a href="http://hollyhostile.com/default.htm" onClick="return clickreturnvalue()" onMouseOver="dropdownmenu(this, event, menu1, '100px')" onMouseOut="delayhidemenu()"> <img src="holly_files/purple_05.jpg" alt="" width="65" height="23"></a></td> <td> <a href="http://www.hollyhostile.com/portfolio.html"><img src="holly_files/purple_06.jpg" alt="" width="65" height="23"></a></td> <td> <a href="http://hollyhostile.com/default.htm" onClick="return clickreturnvalue()" onMouseOver="dropdownmenu(this, event, menu2, '100px')" onMouseOut="delayhidemenu()"> <img src="holly_files/purple_07.jpg" alt="" width="88" height="23"></a></td> However, when I try to use this on my own design, it will only show menu1, and this displays over random buttons, not in a succession. It's very very strange. Here is an example of the kind of thing I want to do: www.gothique-noir.com/asylum Each button apart from "Home" should drop down into a menu, but for some reason it won't let me do different menus. If anyone can help me that would be hugely appreciated Hi , I followed this tutorials (http://matthewjamestaylor.com/blog/centered-dropdown-menus) and was successfully able to create a dynamic menu . At the moment the menu displays just one drop down and not multi submenus drop-downs. Can anybody tell me what can i add to implement something like ? Tab1 Tab2 Link 1 > Link1.1 Link1.2 Link2 . My css code is :- body{behavior:;} body{behavior:url(cssHoverFix.htc);} /* Main menu settings */ #centeredmenu { clear:both; float:left; margin:0; padding:0; border-bottom:1px solid #000; /* black line below menu */ width:100%; font-family:Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif; /* Menu font */ font-size:90%; /* Menu text size */ z-index:1000; /* This makes the dropdown menus appear above the page content below */ position:relative; } /* Top menu items */ #centeredmenu ul { margin:0; padding:0; list-style:none; float:right; position:relative; right:50%; } #centeredmenu ul li { margin:0 0 0 1px; padding:0; float:left; position:relative; left:50%; top:1px; } #centeredmenu ul li a { display:block; margin:0; padding:.6em .5em .4em; font-size:1em; line-height:1em; background:#ddd; text-decoration:none; color:#444; font-weight:bold; border-bottom:1px solid #000; } #centeredmenu ul li.active a { color:#fff; background:#000; } #centeredmenu ul li a:hover { background:#36f; /* Top menu items background colour */ color:#fff; border-bottom:1px solid #03f; } #centeredmenu ul li:hover a, #centeredmenu ul li.hover a { /* This line is required for IE 6 and below */ background:#36f; /* Top menu items background colour */ color:#fff; border-bottom:1px solid #03f; } /* Submenu items */ #centeredmenu ul ul { display:none; /* Sub menus are hidden by default */ position:absolute; top:2em; left:0; float:left; right:auto; /*resets the right:50% on the parent ul */ width:10em; /* width of the drop-down menus */ } #centeredmenu ul ul li { left:auto; /*resets the left:50% on the parent li */ margin:0; /* Reset the 1px margin from the top menu */ clear:left; float:left; width:100%; } #centeredmenu ul ul li a, #centeredmenu ul li.active li a, #centeredmenu ul li:hover ul li a, #centeredmenu ul li.hover ul li a { /* This line is required for IE 6 and below */ font-size:.8em; font-weight:normal; /* resets the bold set for the top level menu items */ background:#eee; color:#444; line-height:1.4em; /* overwrite line-height value from top menu */ border-bottom:1px solid #ddd; /* sub menu item horizontal lines */ float:left; width:100%; } #centeredmenu ul ul li a:hover, #centeredmenu ul li.active ul li a:hover, #centeredmenu ul li:hover ul li a:hover, #centeredmenu ul li.hover ul li a:hover { /* This line is required for IE 6 and below */ background:#36f; /* Sub menu items background colour */ color:#fff; float:left; } /* Flip the last submenu so it stays within the page */ #centeredmenu ul ul.last { left:auto; /* reset left:0; value */ right:0; /* Set right value instead */ } #centeredmenu ul ul.last li { float:right; position:relative; right:.8em; } /* Make the sub menus appear on hover */ #centeredmenu ul li:hover ul, #centeredmenu ul li.hover ul { /* This line is required for IE 6 and below */ display:block; /* Show the sub menus */ } Html Code is :-- <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd"> <HTML> <html> <LINK REL=StyleSheet HREF="nat.css" TYPE="text/css" MEDIA=screen> <body> <div id="centeredmenu"> <ul> <li><a href="#">Tab one</a> <ul> <li><a href="#">Link one</a></li> <li><a href="#">Link two</a></li> <li><a href="#">Link three</a></li> <li><a href="#">Link four</a></li> <li><a href="#">Link five</a></li> </ul> </li> <li class="active"><a href="#" class="active">Tab two</a> <ul> <li><a href="#">Link one</a></li> <li><a href="#">Link two</a></li> <li><a href="#">Link three</a></li> <li><a href="#">Link four</a></li> <li><a href="#">Link five is a long link that wraps</a></li> </ul> </li> <li><a href="#">Long tab three</a> <ul> <li><a href="#">Link one</a></li> <li><a href="#">Link two</a></li> <li><a href="#">Link three</a></li> <li><a href="#">Link four</a></li> <li><a href="#">Link five</a></li> </ul> </li> <li><a href="#">Tab four</a> <ul class="last"> <li><a href="#">Link one</a></li> <li><a href="#">Link two</a></li> <li><a href="#">Link three</a></li> <li><a href="#">Link four</a></li> <li><a href="#">Link five</a></li> </ul> </li> </ul> </div> </body> </html> Regards, Umair I'm trying to create a css only drop-down menu like the ones in html.

What I've tried to do is make the form with id Code: #menuSelectGuestEntries relative positioned is it looks like the first option of a drop-down menu. Then what I was hoping for was to have the drop-down list named Code: #menuSelectGuestEntries absolutely positioned so when someone hovered over the span with id Code: selectGuestBookEntries which contains the first entry all the entries in list Code: guestBookPages would become visible. I'm trying to avoid the Javascript methods of doing this if possible, not a big fan. Any ideas of code I could use in the above scenario to make the listing in the id Code: guestBookPages visible using the hover tag somewhere? Any help greatly appreciated. The visibility option is not working at moment, probably incorrect. Hi there, While this menu works in IE and FF, there's still a little problem with it working perfectly in FF. Basically, it's when you want to mouse over and get the second dropdown option...it only shows part of the button. I'm almost positive this has to do with it not "escaping" the container I have set for the whole design, as the menu option stops right at the border/width of the parent container. For instance, if you go here (with FireFox), and then select from the right side menu: Homes for Sale > Fort Collins, CO > Homestead You'll notice that it only says "Homest" when you want to view the second dropdown option. I need it to show the whole name. I tried setting the z-index higher for these particular classes, but no dice. Is there something I'm missing? Here's the code: Code:

Thanks in advance. Hello everyone! I would like to integrate a very simple purely css-based dropdown menu into my website. My knowledge of css is very basic, so I adapted a free sample menu, boiled it down (mostly through trial and error) to my very specific idea of what it should look like and finally ran into a problem which I could not solve myself so far. The following code represents "my" current code, with placeholder colors, text, links etc.: Code: <!DOCTYPE HTML>
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8">
<title>Menu</title>
<style type="text/css">
/* background */
body {
background-color: #252525;}
/* targeted dropdown button style */
.dd-select {font: 10.5px Verdana; text-transform: uppercase;}
.dd-select a:link {color: #ff0000; text-decoration: none;}
.dd-select a:hover {color: #ffea00;}
/* positioning */
ul.Menu ul{display:none}
ul.Menu li:hover>ul{display:block}
ul.Menu ul{position: absolute; left:-1px; top:98%;}
ul.Menu li:hover{position:relative;}
/* shrink to fit */
ul.Menu {
float: left;}
/* dropdown button */
ul.Menu {
margin:0px;
list-style:none;
padding:0px;}
/* menu case */
ul.Menu ul {
margin:0px;
list-style:none;
padding:0px;
background-color:#5c5c5c;
border-color:#a3a3a3;
border-width:1px;
border-style:solid;}
/* menu element padding */
ul.Menu li{
margin:5px 5px 5px 5px;}
/* menu element */
ul.Menu a {
display:block;
background-color:#454545;
text-align:left;
padding:4px 9px 5px 9px;
font:normal 11.5px Verdana;
color: #f7f7f7;
text-decoration:none;}
/* menu hover */
ul.Menu li:hover>a{
background-color:#333333;
color: #00ff60;}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<ul class="Menu">
<li><a href="#" target="_top">Select</a>
<ul>
<li><a href="#" target="_top">Option 1</a></li>
<li><a href="#" target="_top">Option 2</a></li>
<li><a href="#" target="_top">Option 3</a></li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p class="dd-select"><a href="#">Select (as it should look)</a></p>
</body>
</html>
Now my problem is, I would like the dropdown menu's trigger button (labeled "Select") to look like the text link beneath (styled through .dd-select) instead of having it look like the the rest of the actual dropdown menu. So, different font size, decoration, colours, hover effect and, most importantly, no background color. The dropdown menu should of course keep its original look. Could anyone please give me a hint on how to accomplish this (perhaps with a code example or two) in an elegant way or maybe even refine my code to make it work? That would help me out a lot and I would like to thank everyone for reading and trying to help! Kind regards, Jakob I have dropdown menus completly made of UL lists within UL lists. And i control them with css to show and hide them using :hover. Example: div#navDiv li:hover ul {display:block; z-index:11;} well this works completly fine in Mozilla. But i recently encountered a problem in mozilla. Below the dropdown menu's when I put a <div> and when i add the value overflow:auto; it breaks the menu. The menu still works, but when im hovering over the dropdown UL that goes over this <div> with the scrollbar it will disappear right when i get over the <div> below it. But the UL dropdown menu will not disappear if i just remove that one css property "overflow:auto" is there any way to fix this in mozilla? It works fine in IE. Hi all- My first post here, and I'm hoping someone here can help me out. I'm beginning to build a client site, and I've got an elusive problem with my multiple-tier CSS dropdown menu not vertically spacing its <li> elements correctly in IE7. The problem doesn't seem to happen in IE6, or Mozilla browsers. This menu began its life as a Project Seven "PopMenu Magic" menu, but I've modified it quite a bit with hand-coding. Other that this small problem in IE7, I'm happy with its look and it's functioning as intended. What's further complicating my troubleshooting is that the problem only happens on second-level pages of my site, but not on the homepage. All of the pages use the same "included" CSS and navigation code (I'm building the site in ExpressionEngine and am embedding the navigation in a manner similar to a PHP include). All CSS and xHTML validates, and I'm at wit's end. Links NOTE: The blocked "URL" in all of these following links is to be replaced with "falmouth academy dot org" . I guess because I'm new the forum thinks i'm a spammer. The vertical dropdown menu listings SHOULD be spaced as seen here URL /index.php The spacing problem reveals itself he URL /index.php/about/introduction The code that should be controlling the vertical spacing is found in this css file: URL /index.php?css=home/stylesheet.v.1212113978 And the specific code segment in that file is: #p7PMnav li ul li a { /* second tier navigation */ color : #ffffff; height : 14px; padding : 4px; } I'm not sure, but it appears that in IE7, only the first item in the list is getting the height and padding attributes applied. The color, however, is applied to all elements as it should. Very puzzling. Hopefully this explanation is clear, but the problem is still as clear as mud. Any help is appreciated - I'm not a CSS guru, and I'm hoping there's something I'm overlooking. Hello, I have what I hope is an easy question. I am trying to make a horizontal navigation menu based on code I have found on the net. I got 99% of it working EXCEPT: When sub menu text is displayed it "pushes" the main menu text to the right. my example is located he www(dot)katieandconrad(dot)com I have validated both my HTML and CSS, the errors that are displayed have nothing to do with this issue. However, I will be fixing the HTML error tonight. There's nothing I can do with the CSS errors. Thank you very much for your help. Regards, CB Hi I am using suckerfish drop down menu without problem on my local server, however, on the remote server them menu won't work when jscript is turned off (when viewed on IE). Do you have any idea why this might be? has anyone had this problem before? (here is the url: (URL address blocked: See forum rules)) thanks a lot redmeetsblue.com.au/forum-test/ I'm having a problem with our 3rd level sub-menu links in our top menu. we need to specify a height:auto on the .moduletable_topmenu li a because I need each list item to have an easy changable name. this may mean it has 2 lines for 1 name such as the 3rd item under "Test". Though when we have 2 or more 3rd level items the 2nd level moves with the 3rd level. Such as the 2nd item under "Test" Can anyone think of a way to make this 2nd level list not move with the 3rd level items? 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..??? 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 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;

Thanks! 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? :| 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 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!
