Skipjackrick Posted March 5, 2008 Share Posted March 5, 2008 ARRRGGGHHH. Help! I can't seem to figure out why I can't position the submenu below the main menu choices. It always pops-up over the main menu choice. I have tried editing the values for the margin and it doesn't change anything??? Here is what it looks like through a browser. http://www.ectackle.com/index.html Can somebody help me figure out how to make the submenu pop-up below the main menu choices?? Here is the CSS where I think the problem is, but I included the full CSS at the bottom. /* Menu item containers, position children relative to this container and are a fixed width */ ul.MenuBarHorizontal li { margin: 0; padding: 0; list-style-type: none; font-size: 100%; position: relative; text-align: left; cursor: pointer; width: 100%; float: left; } /* Submenus should appear below their parent (top: 0) with a higher z-index, but they are initially off the left side of the screen (-1000em) */ ul.MenuBarHorizontal ul { margin: 0; padding: 0; list-style-type: none; font-size: 10px; z-index: 1020; cursor: default; width: 100%; position: absolute; left: -1000em; } /* Submenu that is showing with class designation MenuBarSubmenuVisible, we set left to auto so it comes onto the screen below its parent menu item */ ul.MenuBarHorizontal ul.MenuBarSubmenuVisible { left: auto; } /* Menu item containers are same fixed width as parent */ ul.MenuBarHorizontal ul li { width: 15em; } /* Submenus should appear slightly overlapping to the right (95%) and up (-5%) */ ul.MenuBarHorizontal ul ul { position: absolute; margin: -5% 0 0 95%; } /* Submenu that is showing with class designation MenuBarSubmenuVisible, we set left to 0 so it comes onto the screen */ ul.MenuBarHorizontal ul.MenuBarSubmenuVisible ul.MenuBarSubmenuVisible { left: auto;
