I am working on a responsive ribbon navigation bar, that I created using ionicons (http://ionicons.com).
Everything looks great! The only problem is when I resize the browser to a smaller size the right part of the ribbon is causing scrollbars to appear. You can see what I'm working on here: https://jsfiddle.net/gyrndofr/
I tried to use overflow-x:hidden, but then everything except the navigation bar disappears. To see the overflow-x:hidden just uncomment line 7 in the fiddle css.
I'm trying to keep the functionality, but just hide the overflow, which is why I tried overflow-x:hidden, but maybe I'm just adding that to the wrong element.
I took a closer look and made some adjustments, hopefully this helps someone else :-)

Basically, I applied a max-width to both the #nav container and the #nav ul, the trick is...instead of having a #nav:before - #nav:after and a #nav ul:before - #nav ul:after both, the shadow and the ribbon have to be part of the ul, so I left the ribbon as the #nav:before - #nav:after, then created a .left and .right div with my shadow...that way the ribbon is the #nav element and the .left - .right is the shadow.
Thanks,

So I'm making a minor button and navigation kit in terms of learning more HTML and CSS responsiveness. Navigation is my weak point and I've come to my first problem that I can't get my head around.
https://jsfiddle.net/ku0wezws/3
If you scroll to the bottom of the CSS, you'll find the subnav implementation and what I'm trying to achieve is to align all the content in the center when you hover over About. You'll notice that it has just aligned one after the other side by side. My aim is to center all of that normally, going all the way down. Like this: http://www.w3schools.com/howto/howto_js_dropdown.asp
Am I being really stupid? I think I am. What should I adjust in the CSS to make this happen?
Thank you.
Edit:
Edited the JSFiddle
Add this to prevent the li items of that submenu to float next to each other:
.jkit-subnav li {
float:none;
}
https://jsfiddle.net/yhkuv138/
Just clear the float from .jkit-nav-inverse ul li ul li.
Add below code to the end of your CSS.
.jkit-nav-inverse ul li ul li{
clear: both;
}
Updated fiddle
I'm trying to edit the default menu for Wordpress TwentyTwelve theme. So far I have made the sub-menus horizontal but they don't align the same in Firefox than Chrome.
In Ff it looks as I want, but in Chrome, the sub menu align with the Menu item previously clicked, NOT to the far left of the main menu.
basically, I want a horizontal two-lines menu. I can' t get the "position:"" properly.
Here's how it looks in both browsers:
Here's how it looks in both browser:
Chrome:

I can't post more links because I need 10 reputation but the second image (menu in Firefox) in there too.
And here's a fiddle of my code so far:
http://jsfiddle.net/ZN9my/
.main-navigation li ul ul {
top: 0;
left: 100%;
}
.main-navigation .menu-item li {
display: none;
margin-right: 14px !important;
}
Your problem, as you say, is that both browsers seem to be dealing with your position:absolute; differently. position:absolute should be calculated in regards to the most recent parent element with an explicitly set position, which means that it's actually Chrome which is interpreting it right.
In this case, you've given .main-navigation li a position:relative, which means that Chrome is positioning the submenu, li.sub-menu, relative to it. If you remove position-relative from the CSS for .main-navigation li and add it to ul#menu-main, then li.sub-menu will be positioned relative to the main navigation ul, and should behave as you want it to across browsers. You'll probably want to change .main-navigation li ul's top from 100% to something like 37px so it still sits in the right place.
I've made the changes to your jsfiddle as well: http://jsfiddle.net/ZN9my/1/.
Here I've got a jquery menu which is working perfectly. But Ive given it a fixed width of 400px and so what happens is that if I add more than certain number of links to the main ul they will flow in the next line and that is absolutely not desired.
I tried overflow:hidden and line-height to somehow overcome the issue BUT NO RESULT anyway.
Here is the menu : http://jsfiddle.net/b5Wdc/
As you see there, the red color link flows on the next line and that is the problem.
What do should I write to hide the overflown links in this situation?
Thank you all anyway.
From our conversation in the comments on the question, it seems that your menu is completely fixed and any "extra" items should always be hidden and there is no dynamic display or wrapping required. So you can just use CSS to hide all menu items that you know won't fit in. Since a menu item has a width of 99px and the menu is 400px you know you will only ever show 4 items. This purely CSS will hide the rest:
.HeadMenu #nav > li:nth-child(n+5) {
display:none;
}
However it requires a minimum of IE8 for the nth-child CSS selector support.
Since you mentioned jQuery in the question you could accomplish the same in JavaScript if you need to support IE8 with:
$('.HeadMenu #nav > li:nth-child(n+5)').hide()
Alternatively, keep the CSS solution (as it's cleaner) and use selectivizr to bring nth-child selector support to IE8.
if you change your styles to the following i think it may work:
.HeadMenu .HeadMenuMain
{
display:block;
position:relative;
margin:0;
width:400px;
padding:0;
direction:rtl;
height:40px;
white-space:nowrap; //will make elements stay on one row
}
.HeadMenu .HeadMenuMain li
{
display:inline-block; //will make elements stay on one row with the nowrap
list-style:none;
position:relative;
}
http://jsfiddle.net/b5Wdc/2
Adding an overflow:hidden to the navigation menu will do the trick:
.HeadMenu #nav {
overflow: hidden;
}
EDITED

I did it here using a pseudo element that is positioned absolutely to the left of the li element. This then butts it up right up to the border on the parent UL element. In order to get the line on the bottom li to align with the bottom of the border I had to bump the li's down with a top position property, so I added some margin so it wont overlap with anything underneath it.
ul{
padding:16px 8px 0px 0px;
border-left:1px solid #000;
}
li{
display:block;
padding-left:12px;
position:relative;
top:9px;
height:20px;
}
Other then using images, this is probably the easiest way involving the least amount of css.

EDIT
Here's the modified fiddle. I pretty much redid your css because it was a little hard for me to follow with all those sub ul and li children. Sometimes it's better to use a class for readibility, so you're going to have to redo your styles a bit. The sub menu is positioned in the center of the top li which has a set width now. If you don't want it at the center and what your top li's to flex with the link widths, you can modify this.

I'm trying to create a "grid" of "blocks" that when hovered over will reveal some text in a div beneath it. In the example I've got everything how I'd like it but- is there a way to make it work in the arrangement I have it in?
What I'd like is for only the bottom div to push down (like the bottom-left one in the example) when the one above it is "expanded". But obviously I'm not getting something right since it creates a giant gap and it's not showing the animation either.
The way the bottom div reacts in the second column is not what I'm going for, though.
Any ideas?
Thanks, appreciate it!

Through your comments, i think i understood your question finally:
What I've done:
I've moved the second and third li into a new UL-elements.
And let both UL elements float to the left.
The HTML is a bit to much to post here, so i just post the CSS:
ul.things {
list-style: none;
float: left;
width: 240px;
}
ul.things li {
display: inline-block;
/*float:left;*/
margin:15px;
}

Hope it helps :)
