I have a simple setup where I have a collapsed menu. When you click on the button, it will open a menu. If the menu is already opened and you open another menu, the previous menu will collapse. All that works. The only thing I noticed is that It will not collapse the opened menu if I click the same button. That menu will only collapse if I open a different menu. I was wondering how the code below will look with that extra function added? Here's the code for that. <h5 class="mobile-collapse__title">Title Button</h5> <div class="mobile-collapse__content"> <ul> <li>list 1</li> <li>list 2</li> <li>list 3</li> </ul> </div> <script> $(document).ready(function($){ $(".mobile-collapse__title").click(function(e) { e.preventDefault(); $('.mobile-collapse__content:visible').hide(); $(this).next('div.mobile-collapse__content').show(); }); }); </script>

http://www.tirerack.com/content/tirerack/desktop/en/wheels.html See the window where it says "Shop by Vehicle"? Is there a script already out there that does the dropdown search by make/model/year? I am only looking for the front-end code; javascript/jquery code in particular.

We've got a responsive menu that when you click on an li the ul inside it is then displayed as a block (displayed as none beforehand). However you cannot then close the ul without refreshing the page or closing the menu itself. What we want is for when you click the li again, the ul inside it then displays as none. Is this possible using only CSS? (No jQuery please!!!) Any help is greatly appreciated, thanks!

So I am creating php script to make my navigation for a website. I've gathered bits and pieces from books/online forums. One thing that is confusing me is what does the "?" in this line accomplishes? $currentTitle=isset($mainMenu[$currentPage]) ? $mainMenu[$currentPage] : ''; As you can imagine this is a hard question to find an answer to because of the use of ?'s in <?php. Also a little confused on the : symbol also. I am writing this script to keep track of the current page to generate a css class to be modified, which works. But then I also thought id have it generate the titles too but when i echo this.. The script goes bad. echo' <title> ',(is_empty($currentTitle) ? '' : $currentTitle.' - '),$siteTitle,' </title> ' I would be grateful for any help! Thanks in advance.

I'm using a theme that supports a Sub-Filter Menu, and I am having a hard time changing a sub-menu title without losing the functions of the actual prompt. For instance the sub-filter menu has Latest, Likes, Comments. However I want for it to say Latest, Hottest, Comments, when I change the Like to Hottest it no longer shows the post with the most likes in order. I believe this is because the 'Likes' is being called from other php files. Is there a way to add a code that will keep the like function, but display my desired Sub-filter menu title at the same time? An example would be something like this <label for="Likes">Hottest</label> Code below: <ul id="filter_subfilter" class="sort"> <?php if (isset($inspire_options_hp['subfilter_show_latest'])) {?><li><a href="#"><?php _e('Latest', 'loc_inspire'); ?></a></li><?php ;} ?> <?php if (isset($inspire_options_hp['subfilter_show_likes'])) {?><li><a href="#"><?php _e('Likes', 'loc_inspire'); ?></a></li><?php ;} ?> <?php if (isset($inspire_options_hp['subfilter_show_comments'])) {?><li><a href="#"><?php _e('Comments', 'loc_inspire'); ?></a></li><?php ;} ?> <?php if (isset($inspire_options_hp['subfilter_show_random'])) {?><li><a href="#"><?php _e('Random', 'loc_inspire'); ?></a></li><?php ;} ?> </ul>

I've followed a few tutorials, as I've never touched drop down before (more of a conventional navbar guy ). But none are dropping the nested list . I even took the code from one, no changes made, and it still didn't drop the menu This is as far as I got on this tutorial (http://line25.com/tutorials/how-to-create-a-pure-css-dropdown-menu) before coming here #topbar-navigation { width: 101%; margin: 0 auto; ; margin-top: -8px; height: 56px; background: #ffffff; display: inline-block; text-align: center; min-width: 1100px; -webkit-box-shadow: 0 1px 8px 0px #b5b5b5; -moz-box-shadow: 0 1px 8px 0px #b5b5b5; box-shadow: 0 1px 8px 0px #b5b5b5; } #topbar-navigation ul { display: inline-table; list-style: none; position: absolute; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; margin-top: 20px; top: 0; left: 765px; right: 0; } #topbar-navigation ul:after { content: ""; clear: both; display: block; } #topbar-navigation ul ul { display: none; } #topbar-navigation ul li:hover > ul { display: block; } #topbar-navigation ul li a { display: block; padding: 25px 40px; color: #99a0a8; text-decoration: none; font-family: 'sinkin_sans400_regular'; font-size: 12px; } <div id="topbar-navigation"> <a href="index.php"><img src="images/moduniverselogo.png" class="site-logo" draggable="false" /></a> <ul> <li><a href="#">Welcome, <b style="color:#ff924e" ><?php echo $user->data['username'] ?></b></a></li> <ul> <li><a href="#">My Profile</a></li> <li><a href="#">Edit Account</a></li> <li><a href="#">Log Out</a></li> </ul> </ul> </div> I want it nested to the right like on the site currently: http://i.imgur.com/llZPUbZ.png

I have adapted a script from w3schools to use as a main menu for my site. It works great in IE, but about 3 or 4 times slower in FireFox, Chrome and Safari! I have no idea what might be wrong and would appreciate any help.

Hello, I have a menu and using css to control the display. problem area: mouse over menu and bolding. for most part the menu works, what i like to do is prevent the bold (mouse over) from pushing surrounding menus to make space to display the bold. I know i need to somehow expand the menu spaceing so that when the mouse over wont pushing the other menus over but cant seem to hit that number. any ideas? <style rel="stylesheet" type="text/css"> #navcontainer ul { list-style-type: none; margin: 0; padding: 0; } #navcontainer ul li {display: inline; } #navcontainer ul li a { text-decoration: none; font-size: 18px; color: black; background-color: #FFFFFF;} #navcontainer ul li a:hover { color: darkblue; background-color: #FFFFFF; text-decoration:underline; font-weight:bold;} </style> </head> <body> <div id="navcontainer"> <ul> <li> <a href="#"> Home</a></li> <li>|<a href="#"> Project listing</a></li> <li>|<a href="#"> Directory</a></li> <li>|<a href="#"> Create project</a></li> <li>|<a href="#"> My project</a></li> </ul> </div> </body> </html>

Please help me with this I'm completely lost. The problem is that in Firefox (v12) it worked , but in IE8 and Opera 9 series did not. I know about the bugs that are there , but I can not remove it, so not to break menu. I mention the code in the original version. 1) The end tag \ p delete this should not be there 2) The main problem I see is the repeat of id AB: <li id="AB"> and also the user of class . AB is useless because the class is not there. However that is the main problem: if I remove the id#AB so it is all broken, so you wont see the submenu in IE8 or Opera will not show the backround of the submenu 3 ) the reason why the ids AB were there is to distinguish between the fisrt 4 items in menu and the last item logout. The logout should not be highlighted when you hover over it. I do not understand how the unpack of drop-down submenus works , so maybe that's why i do not know what to do, but it seems to me that the error after removing the # id selector is caused by a more detailed ( some rule that trumps ) for clarification about the dimensions of the elements here is a code with dimensions: http://paste.ofcode.org/NQANEG25v3UXQgWBVu3TMn because in jsfiddle http://jsfiddle.net/WhSzr/ it does not have the correct dimensions I use two width there the first li items, they are narrow, 85px and the submenu ul is 108px wide. I give a link to the picture in FF12 : http://oi39.tinypic.com/502t21.jpg http://oi43.tinypic.com/2qi8u47.jpg Can you help to fix the problem? I need to remove the ids AB from li and fix it to work with IE8.

Hi Guys, I have the below code that I am trying to make work correctly, basically it creates a menu structure and then should only make the parent active if the page you are on belongs to that parent. at the moment the structure is wrong as it is adding too many <ul> entries for each menu. this is what it currently does: <ul id="nav"> <li class="active"><a href="admin.php">System Settings</a> <ul id="nav"> <li><a href="reports.php">Reports</a></il> </ul> <ul id="nav"> <li><a href="memblst.php?opt=createuser">Create User</a></il> </ul> </li> </ul> This is what it should be: <ul id="nav"> <li class="active"><a href="admin.php">System Settings</a> <ul> <li><a href="reports.php">Reports</a></il> <li><a href="memblst.php?opt=createuser">Create User</a></il> </ul> </li> </ul> $MENU["SYSTEMS"] = array ( 'parent'=>true, 'enabled'=>true, 'text'=>'System Settings', 'link'=> 'admin.php', 'sub_modules' => array('REPORTS','CREATE_USER') ); $MENU["REPORTS"] = array ( 'parent'=>FALSE, 'enabled'=>true, 'text'=>'Reports', 'link'=> 'reports.php', 'sub_modules' => array() ); $MENU["CREATE_USER"] = array ( 'parent'=>FALSE, 'enabled'=>true, 'text'=>'Create User', 'link'=> 'memblst.php?opt=createuser', 'sub_modules' => array() ); $MENU["MEMBER_LST"] = array ( 'parent'=>FALSE, 'enabled'=>true, 'text'=>'Member List', 'link'=> 'memberlst.php', 'sub_modules' => array() ); $MENU["SYSTEM_LOGS"] = array ( 'parent'=>FALSE, 'enabled'=>true, 'text'=>'System Logs', 'link'=> 'syslog.php', 'sub_modules' => array() ); function show_menu(&$MENU,$subIndex=false){ $menu_string = ''; $menu_string .= '<ul id="nav">'; if(!$subIndex){ foreach($MENU as $item) { if( $item['enabled']&&$item['parent'] ) { $_subString=""; if(!empty($item['sub_modules'])){ foreach($item['sub_modules'] as $sub){ $_subString .= show_menu($MENU,$sub); } } $menu_string .= '<li class="active"><a href="'.$item['link'].'">'.$item['text'].'</a>'.$_subString.'</li>'; } } }else{ if(@$MENU[$subIndex]['enabled']&&!@$MENU[$subIndex]['parent']) { $_subString=""; if(!empty($MENU[$subIndex]['sub_modules'])){ foreach($MENU[$subIndex]['sub_modules'] as $sub){ $_subString .= show_menu($MENU,$sub); } } $menu_string .= '<li><a href="'.$MENU[$subIndex]['link'].'">'.$MENU[$subIndex]['text'].'</a></il>'.$_subString; } } return $menu_string.'</ul>'; } echo show_menu($MENU);

Hi. I have just downloaded a WordPress theme which has a pre-installed horizontal accordion on the homepage. The .css is: .haccordion{ padding: 0; } .haccordion ul{ margin: 0; padding: 0; list-style: none; overflow: hidden; /*leave as is*/ } .haccordion li{ margin: 0; padding: 0; display: block; /*leave as is*/ width: 100%; /*For users with JS disabled: Width of each content*/ height: 200px; /*For users with JS disabled: Height of each content*/ overflow: hidden; /*leave as is*/ float: left; /*leave as is*/ } .haccordion li .hpanel{ width: 100%; /*For users with JS disabled: Width of each content*/ height: 200px; /*For users with JS disabled: Height of each content*/ } <script type="text/javascript"> haccordion.setup({ accordionid: 'hc1', //main accordion div id paneldimensions: {peekw:'50px', fullw:'786px', h:'786px'}, selectedli: [0, true], //[selectedli_index, persiststate_bool] collapsecurrent: false //<- No comma following very last setting! }) haccordion.setup({ accordionid: 'hc2', //main accordion div id paneldimensions: {peekw:'30px', fullw:'786px', h:'786px'}, selectedli: [-1, true], //[selectedli_index, persiststate_bool] collapsecurrent: false //<- No comma following very last setting! }) </script> ...which all seems pretty straightforward... The .js is: <script type="text/javascript"> haccordion.setup({ accordionid: 'hc1', //main accordion div id paneldimensions: {peekw:'50px', fullw:'786px', h:'430px'}, selectedli: [0, true], //[selectedli_index, persiststate_bool] collapsecurrent: false //collapse current expanded li when mouseout into general space? }) </script> ...again, fairly straightforward... The problem is that, when I go to the homepage, the first panel of the accordion is open with the other accordion 'tabs' visible on the right - all good so far - but the second I roll over, the accordion collapses and won't re-open...the hyperlinks still work off the 'tabs', but each layer / panel of the accordion refuses to open, roleed over, clicked on, whatever... Any suggestions?

I have a table that I want to create into a horizontal menu using lists/CSS in my header. I have the code that creates the menu, I just can't figure out the foreach loops to actually generate the menu. $refs = array(); $list = array(); $result = full_query("SELECT id,title,slug,parent FROM `page`"); while($data = mysql_fetch_assoc($result)) { $thisref = &$refs[$data['id']]; $thisref['parent'] = $data['parent']; $thisref['title'] = unserialize($data['title']); $thisref['slug'] = $data['slug']; if($data['parent'] == 0) { $list[$data['id']] = &$thisref; } else { $refs[$data['parent']]['children'][$data['id']] = &$thisref; } } // can't figure this part out foreach($list as $keys => $var) { foreach($var as $vkey => $vvar) { if(isset($vkey['children'])) { print $vkey; } } } Which, with my current data, results in this array: Array ( [4] => Array ( [children] => Array ( [1] => Array ( [parent] => 4 [title] => Child1 [id] => 1 [slug] => child1 ) ) [parent] => [title] => Parent1 [id] => 4 [slug] => parent1 ) [6] => Array ( [children] => Array ( [2] => Array ( [parent] => 6 [title] => child2 [id] => 2 [slug] => child2 ) [3] => Array ( [parent] => 6 [title] => child3 [id] => 3 [slug] => child3 ) [8] => Array ( [parent] => 6 [title] => child4 [id] => 8 [slug] => child4 ) ) [parent] => [title] => Parent2 [id] => 6 [slug] => parent2 ) [7] => Array ( [parent] => [title] => Parent3 [id] => 7 [slug] => parent3 ) [9] => Array ( [parent] => [title] => Parent4 [id] => 9 [slug] => parent4 ) ) Am trying to get the foreach to do this: Parent1 Child1 Parent2 Child2 Child3 Child4 Parent3 Parent4 But horizontally. Any help is greatly appreciated!

Hi I'm trying to find some code that would tell the bit of code that I created what the device width is so I can make this navigation menu dynamic. Meaning: if the device width is 480px and the navigation menu would come to 1024px then using PHP the code would automatically put the <li> items in to a more tab untill the the width is equal or less than 480px. I don't want to use Javascript to do this as I know most of you will recommend using..... Here's my code. Change the variable $deviceWidth to and refresh.... change between 1 and 10. <? $navItems = array("ME", "MUSIC", "VIDEO", "GIGS", "FESTIVALS", "CONTACT"); $deviceWidth = 3; $diffrence = count($navItems) - $deviceWidth; while($diffrence > 0){ $more[] = array_pop($navItems); $diffrence = $diffrence - 1; } foreach($navItems as $nav){ $lower = strtolower($nav); $upper = strtoupper($nav); $lower1 = strtolower($more); $upper1 = strtoupper($more); echo"<li class='Nav'><a href='$lower.php'>$upper</a></li>"; } if(!empty($more)){ echo"<li class='Nav-more'><a href='#'>MORE</a> <ul class='more'>"; foreach($more as $more){ $lower1 = strtolower($more); $upper1 = strtoupper($more); echo "<li class='Nav-more'><a href='$lower1.php'>$upper1</a></li>"; } echo"</ul> </li>"; } ?> And the CSS to give an example. .Navigation { background-image:url(images/H_BG.png); background-repeat:repeat-x; width:100px; height:50px; } .Nav-bar { background-image:url(images/H_BG.png); background-repeat:repeat-x; width:90%; min-width:700px; _width:700px; font-size:20px; line-height:40px; margin-left:5%; margin-right:5%; height:50px; } ul.Nav { list-style:none; margin:0px; padding:0px; } ul.Nav li { font-weight:20; display:inline; } ul.Nav li a { font-weight:bold; text-decoration: none; float: left; color:#7D7D7D; border-left:1px solid #D1D1D1; padding:5px; padding-left:10px; padding-right:10px; } ul.Nav li a:hover { background-image:url(images/H_BG2.png); background-repeat:repeat-x; font-weight:bold; text-decoration: none; float: left; } ul.more { display:none; } ul.Nav li.Nav-more:hover ul.more { display:block; font-weight:bold; text-decoration: none; float: left; color:#111; border-left:1px solid #0f0; padding:5px; padding-left:10px; padding-right:10px; }

Hello to everyone ! I am new in php, and need some help. I had, a website coded, in html, and decided to change it in php. In the old version, I had some controls for giving the user the oportunity to change the text and background color of my website based in his/her, choice, by using some buttons. When I changed my website, into php, I was also try to change the color controls of the old website, to work in php. Unfortunatelly, I achieved to change only the half part of these controls, basically only the background color selection and make a dropdown menu for that. But I couldn't create a dropdown menu for changing the font controls. As I know, in PHP there is not actually the possibility to control the color of the text, there is no color actually but the colors are being implemented as html in the client side.(Correct me if I am Wrong) My questions are: 1) how can I implement a drop down menu, which will give the oportunity to the visitors of my website, to change the color of the text in my website 2) how can I take actually the selected value from the html, and store it to a php cookie, like I did it in the background color selection Thanks in Advance !!!

Hi everyone ! I'm new here... So I got a little problem with creating my first website. I want to include files with the content of my subpages to the main index file. At the first I made a simple solution with switch. Where the urls to the files in the menu look like: href="index.php?page=1" than "page=2" and so on and the code in the place of subpages content was: <? switch ($_GET['page']) { case 2: include("/subpages/aboutme.php"); break; case 3: include("/subpages/a=gallery.php"); break; case 4: include("/subpages/movies.php"); break; case 5: include("/subpages/contact.php"); break; case 1: default: include("/subpages/main.php"); } ?> Of course this solution was correct and it was working BUT what about when someone change the url to the ..."index.php?page=10000000" just because being curious and to check what will happen (there isn't any site with the sign "The page you're looking for cannot be found") and the other reason why I want to upgrade my include solution was that I have to add another cases every time when I want to make another subpages. So I decided to change it and my new url code in menu looks like: href="index.php?page=aboutme" or href="index.php?page=gallery" (so after equal sign there is an exactly name of my subpage without ".php") and than the code which includes my content is: if (file_exists('subpages/' . $page . '.php')) { require('subpages/' . $page . '.php'); } else { echo '<div id="main"><span>The page you’re looking for cannot be found.</span></div>'; } where the $page=$_GET['page']; It is working too but only when I click on one of the subpages in my menu but what about default like in the switch solution? I mean the case when I go to my site typing url without selecting any subpage. Now there is just the sign "The page you're looking for cannot be found." My other question is that I want to add a guestbook which is in the other folder in subpages so the url is "subpages/guestbook/gbook.php". What should I change in my code which works only for the subpages folder? I try to do something like this but it doesn't work: if ($page='gbook' && file_exists('subpages/guestbook/' . $page . '.php')) { require('subpages/guestbook/' . $page . '.php'); } elseif ($page!='gbook' && file_exists('subpages/' . $page . '.php')) { require("subpages/' . $page . '.php'); } else { echo '<div id="main"><span>The page you’re looking for cannot be found.</span></div>'; } Sorry for the length of this topic but I want to avoid unnecessary questions and useless solutions and I want apologies for my English but I'm 17 and I'm from Poland so I've been still learning it !

I'm taking this class and we've just started to learn PHP so I am really new to the subject. I have done some coding and have been emailing my instructor (he has not responded yet) so please do not just click the back button thinking all I want is the answer. Here is what I need to accomplish: Create a "self-processing" PHP page that will initially just display a simple form with a drop-down select box that lets the user choose between the feedback and help request forms. When the user makes a selection, instead of using JavaScript to dynamically build or reveal the appropriate submission form, the form will be submitted back to the same page on the server for further processing. The PHP page will use a PHP script to check if the user has submitted a choice, and if so it will dynamically display the appropriate form. This is what my assignment looks like so far: http://www2.esc.edu/jvooris/assignment5-2.php As you can see, the forms are already displayed even without selecting an option from the drop down menu. What I need to have happen is have that drop down menu appear and then have the appropriate form display after the user clicks the submit button. So if the user clicks the submit button when the option is still on "Please select the form you want to fill out" then nothing should be displayed. However, if the user clicks the submit button when they select the option "Feedback Form" then that form will appear on the page and the same goes for the "Help Form". When I emailed my instructor he said that I need to: "Create a PHP page with a form with a drop down menu and a submit button that has a action to post to itself" and "Add PHP code at the top using the isset method to test to see if the page was submitted to itself and if your drop down menu variable was sent." Like I said, I do have some code already written. My problem is trying to figure out how to make it work correctly and I can't tell if I am way off base with the code I already have or if I just need to tweak a few things. I would appreciate any help in this matter and I hope I did not do too much explaining to deter anyone. Thank you. I will post my code below (I have cut out the code for the forms to shorten the code). <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" lang="en" xml:lang="en"> <head> <title>PHP Form</title> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html;charset=utf-8" /> <link rel="stylesheet" href="styles.css" type="text/css" /> <!--This links the entire page to the CSS style sheet.
