Dropdown Menu

May 12, 2012 5:42 PM

Tags: #cs5 #dreamweaver #javascript

This site has a dropdown menu associated with 2 of the navigation links: "Services" and "Community Care"

 

I want the menu to drop down below the default text but instead its going to the top left corner of the screen.  Im assuming it has to do with the container or a z-index but I dont what I need to do to make it function properly.

 

This it the link to the current site that works correctly: http://www.amerimedems.com/index.html

 

This is the site in progress: http://www.healthquestpt.com/aems/

 

The dropdownmenu.js script is here: http://www.healthquestpt.com/aems/scripts/dropdownmenu.js 

And the css file is here:  http://www.healthquestpt.com/aems/styles.css

 

Thanks for your help!!!

    good, in such cases I prefer to do the following: after entering the menu I put a labelon each button div with an ID of his own, and then use the css to move anywhere. do not enter the same ID for the div tags to no errors of syntax. It is not complicated, youcan use this technique for any spry. I hope this helps.

    Sorry to say but the CSS for your menu system is incomplete. Where did you get this menu?

    You might save yourself some time and hassle by switching to a better menu system such as PVII Pop-Menu Magic, jQuery Superfish or even Spry Menu 2.0 from Adobe's Widget Exchange.

    Funny because IE is the ultimate problem child; not Firefox. 

     

    Not to diss Dynamic Drive.  I've used scripts from their site before.  But the menu you're using right now isn't top notch.  You could do much better.

    Depends.  Who is your target audience?  Which browsers & web devices do you need to support?

    OK.  I prescribe Project Seven's Pop-Menu Magic 2.  It's rock solid in all browsers (even legacy) and it "answers the phone" requirements.
