this is going to be embarrassing, but I haven't been writing code/css for a while, so please bear with me ;-)
All I need is a simple drop down menu, but for some reason the one I came up with does not work, the drop down disappears when moving the mouse down, and text (from my main content) gets overlayed. I suspect this is happening because I use absolute position for my elements, but there must be a solution other than moving content down by stating #main top: 300px;

Any ideas?
Thanks,

Your #main div is covering up the #menu div which blocks the functionality you are seeking. You can solve this by adjusting your #menu statement in style.css to include a z-index.
For example:
#menu {
position:absolute;
left: 12px;
top: 80px;
z-index: 2;
}

so i have this fiddle http://jsfiddle.net/speeedracer/CGucm/ and as you can see when you mouse over any of the links across the top row, the popup div is under the list elements of the bottom row. anyone know how to get it to cover over the other page content? i changed the z-index to be really high so it appears on top, but it didn't work.
here's the drop-down box code:
enter code here.drop-box {
display: none;
position: static;
width: 400px;
height: 100px;
z-index: 9999;
background: #e8dfc2;
}
*i know i have some visual spacing issues, but i just need a working mockup without it having to be perfect...yet.
thanks!
z-index does not work with position: static. This is as if you had no position.
So changing your position: absolute will solve your problem and z-index will come into play.
HI hope someone can help answer my question its really starting to bug me!

When you click on the about tab the information comes up but a margin on the right hand side of the page appears and creates a massive white space?
I've tried editing the css a number of times but nothing. any ideas??
#aboutp
{
width:100%;
}
causes the issue..remove it...:)
Remove width:100%; form #aboutp ID this will work
the parent div miss a position relative.
you use position absolute without using position relative to parent div
div {
height: 900px;
width: 1000px;
overflow: hidden;
margin-right: 0px;
position: relative; /*add to inline style or make a class for this parent div*/
}
I have been trying to center a Navigation bar on my Vbulletin website for a few days now. I've tried changing the parent class, the child class, manually inserting CSS in the html element, but it seems that something is overriding the style somewhere. Firebug does not seem to identify the problem for me.
Link to the forum: http://www.mobileassaultgroup.co.uk/forum/
The navbar is just underneath the banner image.
I have tried
display: block-inline
margin-left: 50%;
margin-right: 50%;
horizontal-position: middle;
On both the <ul> and <div> to no avail; it just sticks there slightly off to the left.
It is not the search bar on the right hand side either as I deleted that from the page and it still stays on that position.
Any ideas?
Thanks
Something like this will work if you remove the search box.
CSS:
#navtabs_container {
display: block;
width: 600px;
margin: auto;
}
#vbtab_forum ul {
left: 50%;
margin-left: -260px;
}
This css of yours won't work. This this instead.

I've been asked to change the layout of this charity website:
http://antidotemarketing.com/youthlife/
I need to place the nav up the top, then the logo underneath, then under that the white box containing the slider and main content.
This must be done using CSS only.
So far I've had difficulty getting the same results in both Chrome and FF... I haven't even checked IE yet. How would I go about positioning the logo in the middle of the nav and the main content box with some adequate spacing (say 20px top and bottom)
One more issue: I can't absolute position the logo because when people log in to wordpress, the header that wordpress injects into the top messes up the spacing of everything.
Thanks everyone :)
OK, I think I finally understand what you are after. Try adding the following styles:
#logo {
position: absolute;
top: 80px;
z-index: 100;
}
#login #logo {
position: relative;
}
#page {
margin-top: 45px;
}
I've read replies for similar problems to mine, and I believe I've tried the steps mentioned but I'm still having problems with my dropdown menu disappearing when mouse off.
I've removed the formatting of the dropdown just so the code is bare bones, please take a look:

If you mouse over past productions you'll see my problem.
Thanks in advance for what probably is quite a simple fix, it's just alluding me!
Cheers,

In the rule for your dropdown uls, use padding-top: <#>px; rather than top: 45px; to put spacing between the menu header and your list. The top value should be no more than the height of the menu header, otherwise you'll create a gap between it and the list, which will remove the list's visibility as soon as the cursor moves off the header and over the gap.
Try this one on style.css line 89
I have changed the top position of ul. The problem is there is a gap between your a tag (Past Products) and dropdown ul
#menu ul ul {
margin: 0 auto;
position: absolute;
top: 40px;
visibility: hidden;
width: 90px;
}
You're pushing your submenu too far from your main menu item, just declare it 100% to push your submenu exactly below your main menu item to fix the problem:
#menu ul ul {
top: 100%; /* fix */
}
