[css-d] Pure CSS drop-down menus aren't *good*

G'day Jay, I've heard the request for pure CSS drop-down menus quite a lot, and rarely see people getting told what they should about how *bad* they are. CSS is designed as a method for styling visible items and laying them out relative to one-another. Drop-down menus are behavioural, and

HI David, I got the jumping/no-scroll problem fixed by elminating a javascript call. It was only an issue in IE 6 and IE 7. thanks for the screenshot -- it looks like you've enlarged the font size (I hope it's not defaulting to that!) I know that on the largest font increase the text will

[css-d] CSS Flyout Menu Fails in IE7

Hi All, Hopefully, I posted this properly. I'm requesting assistance with a menu flyout problem which works fine in Mozilla, but not with IE7. Menus are displayed on a sidebar of the web page. When hovering over the menu choice, a block of sub-menus appears to the left or right depending on

Re: [css-d] pure CSS drop-down menu - Sperling

This is certainly a nice-looking solution, however I'm curious about one thing. If I put my cursor tip in a top-level box, it drops down the sub-menu just fine, but the highlighting in the top-level box is only on if the tip of the cursor is somewhere above (ie vertically) the midline of the

Re: [css-d] pure CSS drop-down menu - Sperling

It's because of the child's (or sub-item's parent) box. They probably thought on give it some margin to make it safer and easier to select, meaning you can go a little out of the item's box and the menu won't disappear, so the issue you describe is caused by their top margin. Hope that

Re: [css-d] Pure CSS drop-down menus aren't *good*

I think this is yet another religious topic. Accessibility on most JS menus (actually all I've seen so far) is inexistent, some of them are so poorly done than they even throw an error on this or that browser and the whole menu stops working. If you ask Joe Clark about his opinion... maybe
