CSS - Css Dropdown Menu Positioning Problems In Mozilla
i am trying to use the suckerfish dropdown menu. starting from the pretty example, i got it going in IE6 but it looked pretty off in mozilla. i tinkered around further the the IE code which changed things a bit there and made things look a bit better in mozilla but not much!
my code is at http://www.fizzycherry.com/menutest.html - i would *really* appeciate any ideas. the main things really bugging me a how can i get the menu bar to fill the width of the screen in mozilla? my navbar div did this before i inserted the sub menus! once i tinkered with my css, placing padding on the links rather than the li elements, huge vertical gaps started appearing in the submenus in both IE and Mozilla, even with no margins padding and borders. i need to *add* a bottom border (same colour as background) to remove these gaps! why?? ideally i would like the submenus to look somethign like they do in ie6 but even if someone could just tell me how to make the bar fill the screen i'd be chuffed! Similar TutorialsHello. I'm trying to create a CSS/SPRY dropdown menu. It seems to work fine in Firefox but in IE 6 the dropdown goes horizontal until I mouse over then it goes verticle. Also how do I add black 1px border around each list item in the dropdown menu? I have tried but it tends to give the first Menu Item the border as well which doesnt work so well with the layout.

I've gotten it to work pretty much exactly as I want to in FF and Opera, but of course it's displaying very wrong in IE. I thought I had found the code needed to fix IE, but I've either used it incorrectly, or it's just not the right bit of code. Here's a page with the navbar live: http://www.skullcrow.com/community_upload.php Here's the css being used: Code: /* horizontal drop down navbar - basic formatting */
#centering_wrap {width:100%; position:relative;}

#menu ul {list-style: none;margin: 0;padding: 0;float: left; line-height:42px;} /* Main format for top categories */
#menu ul ul{ position:relative; top:35px; left:5%; width: 90%;} /* child element widths */
#menu ul li{ background-position:bottom left;} /* set nav bg position */
#menu ul li:hover{ background-position:top left;} /* set nav bg position hover position */
/* Positioning popouts (2nd level only) */
#menu li {position: relative;} /* make "ABSOLUTE" work correctly */
#menu ul ul {position: absolute; z-index: 500;} /* prevent menu from "pushing" contents down */

...and finally, here's the small snippet of code I used up in the header of the main php file that I thought was suppose to fix the display issue but didn't: Code: <!--[if IE]>
<style type="text/css" media="screen">
body {
behavior: url(css/csshover3.htc);
font-size: 100%;
}
#menu ul li {float: left; width: 100%;}
#menu ul li a {height: 1%;}
#menu a, #menu h2 {
font: bold 0.7em/1.4em arial, helvetica, sans-serif;
}
</style>
<![endif]-->
That last bit is contained at the very of the header, and is the very last item before the </head> tag. In addition to the other 'adjustments', it's also suppose to be including the csshover3.htc file that I thought was suppose to fix a lot of display problems. The site I got that file from is he http://www.xs4all.nl/~peterned/csshover.html Whatever help is always very appreciated. I'm still sort of a css newb, although I think I'm starting to understand more, but IE is a bastard and I think most web developers would probably agree. Thanks again. it's best to get a visual of this one: www.viportals.com i'm talking about the buttons under the top banner. if you hover "Games", a drop down list appears. there is a 1pixel line between the "Games" button and its dropdown list (when you hover the "Games" button) which i want to get rid of, but can't. in IE, there are many horrible problems, probably due to the display:inline-block of the li a. the buttons are too tall and hang down below the bottom line of the horizontal bar, and the dropdown menu appears beside the "Games" button. i tried css Code: Original - css Code #sddm ul li a { padding-top: 0; padding-bottom: 0; margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0; }
#sddm ul li a {
in my separate ie css file, but its the same here is all the code if you need it to gain a better understanding (css, html, and js). css Code: Original - css Code /* DROP-DOWN NAVIGATION MENU */ #sddm { margin: 0; padding: 0; z-index: 30; } #sddm li { margin: 0; padding: 0; list-style: none; float: left; } #sddm li a { display: inline-block; text-decoration: none; color:#495B20; background-color:#BAD36B; border-left: 2px solid #fff; border-top: 2px solid #fff; border-right: 2px solid #000; border-bottom: 2px solid #000; } #sddm li a:hover { background-color:#495B20; color:#BAD36B; border-left: 2px solid #000; border-top: 2px solid #000; border-right: 2px solid #fff; border-bottom: 2px solid #fff; text-decoration:none; } #sddm li:hover div { position: absolute; visibility: hidden; margin: 0; padding: 0; background: #BAD36B; border-left: 2px solid #fff; border-top: 2px solid #fff; border-right: 2px solid #000; border-bottom: 2px solid #000; } #sddm li div { position: absolute; visibility: hidden; margin: 0; padding: 0; background: #BAD36B; border-left: 2px solid #fff; border-top: 2px solid #fff; border-right: 2px solid #000; border-bottom: 2px solid #000; } #sddm li div:hover { background-color:#495B20; color:#BAD36B; border-left: 2px solid #000; border-top: 2px solid #000; border-right: 2px solid #fff; border-bottom: 2px solid #fff; } #sddm li div:hover a{ background: #495B20; color: #BAD36B; } #sddm li div a { position: relative; display: block; margin: 0; padding: 5px 10px; width: auto; white-space: nowrap; text-align: left; text-decoration: none; border:none; font: 11px arial; } #sddm li div a:hover { text-shadow:#000; text-decoration:underline; border:none; } /* DROP-DOWN NAVIGATION MENU */ html Code: Original - html Code <div id='navbar'> <ul id="sddm"> <?php echo " <li> <a href='".get_home_link()."'> Home</a> </li> <li> <a href='".get_category_link("name=all&page=1")."'"; ?> onmouseover='mopen("m1")' <?php echo " onmouseout='mclosetime()'> Games</a> <div id='m1' onmouseover='mcancelclosetime()' onmouseout='mclosetime()'> "; $categories = get_categories("htmlize=true&order=order&sort=ASC"); foreach ($categories as $category) { $link=get_category_link("name="._sp($category['name'])."&page=1"); echo "<a href='".$link."'>".$category['name']; $category['gamenum'] = count(get_games("thecat="._sp($category['name']))); echo " (".$category['gamenum'].")"; echo "</a>"; } echo " </div> </li> <li> <a href='".get_users_link()."'> Members</a> </li> <li> <a href='".get_news_link()."'> News</a> </li> <li> <a href='".get_submit_link()."'> Submit</a> </li> <li> <a href='".get_links_link()."'> Links</a> </li> <li> <a href='".get_rules_link()."'> Rules</a> </li> <li> <a href='".get_faq_link()."'> FAQ</a> </li> <li> <a href='".get_contact_link()."'> Contact</a> </li>"; ?> </ul> <div style="clear:both"></div> </div>

Hi, I'm trying to make a drop-down menu using CSS and javascript. I'm posting this here because the javascript (and most of the css!) is working fine, I just need some help with the positioning. You can see the menu so far on the website I'm beginning to develop, 10pinleague.com. As you can see the initial drop downs work as intended but when you attempt to open a submenu, that should appear to the right of the drop down menu, it appears in completely the wrong place. And for some odd reason the distance from the drop-down menus to the submenus increases more and more as you progress from Menu 1 to Menu 2 and 3. I'm no expert at either javascript or CSS, so the drop down menu was something that I downloaded from a website, here, and then adapted to suit my site. Perhaps this wasn't intended to work as a cascading drop down menu. I just thought if I apply the same principle of wrapping the link in a div and getting that to show another new div containing the submenu it should work. And it kind of does, just in the wrong place - which I do not understand why this happens. Here is the HTML code for the menu. (note this is not the actual code on my website, this is code that is generated from a php loop I've made. But the HTML remains the same). Code:

Here is the related CSS.....but I doubt this is important. Code:
.menu_dropdown { background-color: #a5caad; border: 1px solid #057c1f; position: absolute; visibility: hidden; font-size: small; }
.menu_dropdown A:link {text-decoration: none; color: #000; font-weight: normal; }
.menu_dropdown A:visited {text-decoration: none; color: #000; font-weight: normal; }
.menu_dropdown A:active {text-decoration: none; color: #000; font-weight: normal; }
.menu_dropdown A:hover {text-decoration: underline; color: #000; font-weight: normal; }
td.menuNormal
{padding: 0px;
font-weight: bold;
vertical-align: top;
background-color:#a5caad;}
td.menuHover
{padding: 0px;
font-weight: bold;
vertical-align: top;
background-color: #87bc93;}

Can somebody please help me get the submenus appearing next to the divs in the drop-down menus that they relate to, rather than half way across the page? Thank you very much! PS. If you think I've asked this in the wrong place and it should be in the Javascript forum, could you move it for me? Thanks. I've got the following code written for a web site that I'm supposed to look at moving toward CSS. I'm just begining and am already noticing the discrepancies between IE and Mozilla (Firefox). Mozilla seems to be separating images larger than it should. I know this is(was) a problem with IE, but didn't expect to see it in Mozilla. Any suggestions? I can supply code and a reference page if needed. Thanks for any help. Hi, i made this page: http://www.jarra.nl/_TEST/test.htm css file: http://www.jarra.nl/_TEST/mottacss2.css i'd like to have the orange line above "new title" at the same height as the orange line under the gray box. it's like that in IE6 on XP, but it's slightly lower in mozilla on XP. can't seem to fix it ;-) any ideas, thanx a lot !! jarra I've been pulling out my hair trying to figure out what it is i'm doing wrong here. I've been messing with this code and trying different things, but can't seem to figure out what the problem is. One of my divs is not sized properly. Can someone take a quick look and see what it could be? I'd realyl appreciate it. Thanks! http://ritchie.acomp.usf.edu/~lamba/my2.html I know it's an age old problem, and I know there should be many links in the forums showing me where to go...the thing is that I don't think I'm doing anything wrong. http://www.rocksolidhq.com/anmar/index.php , renders fine in IE but not Mozilla. Simply going into the CSS and changing the margin-top on the #container OR moving #services_blackout higher fixes this. I'm wondering if anyone knows wether I must fix something or whether in this case one of the browsers has a bug and needs a separate style sheet. Can anyone tell me whether they have experienced height and overflow problems with FireFox and Mozilla browsers? Check this out: Test Page. It looks fine in IE, but not the other two. I've been working on this half the day with no solution. Can anyone help? If the problem can be solved without the use of javascript, that would be preferred. Thanks, Darin http://www.chequedelarealidad.org/ There seems to be a problem with this site when loaded into the Mozilla broswer. When you initially click on the 'Projecten' page, the bottom bar contents are placed about two inches too high up the page. However, when I click the refresh button, this problems corrects itself. Once corrected, the page loads fine every time, but if I clear my web cache and try again, the first time I click on the link the problem appears again. Is there are mistake in my css, or does anyone know how I can correct this? I will appreciate any input. Thank you in advance, Toria I have a vertical menu on the left-hand side of my website, everything appears correctly when the page is first loaded but when I click on a menu item the entire div appears to shift to the left (10px). If I refresh the page it also appears correctly, so it is only when I have clicked on a menu item. I do know that there are plenty of problems with IE, but the menu does appear and function correctly in both IE and Opera. I am only having the problem with Mozilla. I am thinking that it may be something to do with the link visited properties but am not sure what. I have validated the css via the W3C website but there were no errors reported. The css segment is as follows: #subnavcontainer { position: absolute; left: 10px; top: 0px; margin-top:0px; padding-top: 0px; height: 700px; width: 160px; background: url("../images/bg_vert.gif") no-repeat; } #subnavcontainer ul { list-style-type: none; color: #000; margin-top: 0px; margin-left: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-top: 0px; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; display: block; width: 200px; background-color: #D7D7D7; } #subnavcontainer li { padding-left: 0px; margin-top: 1px; } #subnavcontainer ul li { margin: 0 0 1px 0; padding-left: 0px; } #subnavcontainer ul a { display: block; padding: 0px 2px 2px 5px; width: 160px; color: #000; background-color: #F0EFEE; text-decoration: none; border-left: 4px solid #B09292; } #subnavcontainer ul a:hover { color: #000; background-color: #fff; text-decoration: none; border-left: 4px solid #FF0000; } The html segment is as follows: <div id="subnavcontainer"> <ul> <li> <a href="../content/company/se_company_overview.htm" target="mainFrame">Overview</a> </li> <li> <a href="../content/company/se_company_location.htm" target="mainFrame">Location</a> </li> <li> <a href="../content/company/se_company_contact.htm" target="mainFrame">Contact</a> </li> </ul> </div> How do I align menu elements of my menu? In Mozilla the elements are leaning conpletely to the left of the screen and doing somewhat what they're supposed to do in internet explorer. To put it simply I'd just like to have the same style class used to center the menu items in both Mozilla and Internet explorer. Heres the html page : Code:
<html>
<head>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="style.css" title="thisstyle CSS"></head><body>
<style>
body
{
background-color: limegreen;
<font FACE="Lucida Console">
}
</style>
</head>

<li><a href="users/help/tour.html" >Tour</a></li>
<li><a href="users/contact.php">Contact</a></li>
</ul>
</div>
</body></html>
Heres the css style sheet : Code:

Thanks http://www.strutmag.com/menu06/ CSS In IE:Win The dropdown does not drop down right below the black tab, as it should; it starts to drop down about halfway through the tab. This is my first time really customizing a Suckerfish menu and I'm not really sure how I would go about tackling this problem. Thanks for any help or suggestions! 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..??? Hi. I'm trying to create a dropdown menu using some code from son-of-Suckerfish. It's simple enough in concept - just a few lines of Javascript <!-- SON OF SUCKERFISH DROP DOWN MENU --> <script type="text/javascript"><!--//--><![CDATA[//><!-- sfHover = function() { var sfEls = document.getElementById("nav").getElementsByTagName("LI"); for (var i=0; i<sfEls.length; i++) { sfEls[i].onmouseover=function() { this.className+=" sfhover"; } sfEls[i].onmouseout=function() { this.className=this.className.replace(new RegExp(" sfhover\\b"), "");

Basically I have a single-graphic hover menu which works fine, but then the drop-down menus (in their separate colours) are just not coming in underneath in IE7 - ok in Firefox on pc and mac, plus fine is Safari on mac - but they should be normal wording links as 11px text with 17px line-height. I am getting the single-graphic coming in instead. I know this must have something to do with the nested ul in the li, but just can't stop this happening. So, it's really a 2 stage HELP. PLEASE!!!! Oh, I know I can't put a url link in. It's basically in a devsite folder of the main site I'm talking about here! I am a photographer for a website and I know very little about anything other than basic html. With the website lady gone on a trip around the world for a year, I ended up being the person to attempt to modify our side menu to show an additional column of subcategories. I tinkered around with the code we had and I managed to get this to work in Firefox, however in IE7 the contents of the menu shift down a few pixels when you hover over a category. To view my problem, go to scannerparts.biz I've messed around with this for a few days and everything has become a big confusing mess so I have no choice but give in and ask for help. I thank anyone in advance for any assistance you can offer. -Emerson Here is the code: hover.css Code:

http://www.describe.org/homework/esdcar http://www.describe.org/homework/esdcar/esdcar.css Three things: One is that in FF, etc, the dropdown for the single level labels (about, events) as opposed to the doubledecker ones (buyers) start too high -- not at the bottom of the box. I've tried playing with padding, height, margins...I must not have hit on the right combo yet, but I can't get it right. The second, though minor, is why there's a tiny crack that appears between one set of boxes (which set changes). I tried bumping up the width on one box by a tenth but that just caused the whole menubar to wrap down to a second line. The third is that the javascript doesn't work on IE. I copied it straight from the suckerfish/html dog tutorial and substituted the appropriate div name, but it's not working. (I haven't tried fixing anything else in IE yet, so it all looks bad...but the js should work.) late edit: I forgot to say that if I could, I'd like the single-level labels to be centered vertically, too, instead of up at the top... Can anyone give me a hint on why the css/javascript controlled dropdowns don't appear right on this page in Safari: http://spa.american.edu As you can see in the view source the script is very basic and not embedded in an external file. Safari cuts off a portion of the final link. Thanks, Jeremy What I currently have is Code: <div id="main"> Site content comes here </div> <div id="bottomLinks"> <div style="float: left">A link</div> <div style="float: right">Copyright notification</div> </div> Code:
#bottomLinks {
padding: 10px 0px 10px 0px;
margin: 0;
width: 750px;
position: absolute;
bottom: 10px;
}
#main {
background-color: #FFFFFF;
width: 760px;
font-family: Arial;
font-size: 12px;
padding: 30px 0px 0px 40px;
}
As you can see, I'm trying to put the link & copyright notification at the bottom of the page. My problem occures when the site content is so long that there will be a scrollbar. Opera will handle this the way I want it to, meaning first the content and then at the very bottom of the page there will be the link and the notification. However Firefox and Konqueror doesn't work this way. They both put the bottomLinks 10 pixles top from the VISIBLE part of the page, overlapping the actual content. If the content is long enough, it could mean that bottomLinks is in the middle of the page. Any ideas how to fix this? |
