I have edited the CSS on my menu on this site:
So it would display completely across at the font size I want (previously it was turning into a two layer menu). However, now for some reason the submenu under "Show Your Support" is very difficult to click on. When you hover and try to move your mouse down to an option it disappears half the time before you can click on anything.
I have played around with the code in Chrome (inspect element) and I can't seem to find out what is wrong. Can someone assist me, please?
Thank you.
There is a gap between the menu and where the sub-menu appears. See Image below:
When you hover away from the menu item and the mouse is on its way to the sub-menu, the mouse ceases to be on 'hover' (while crossing over the gap) - making the sub-menu disappear.
If you can eliminate the gap (i.e. place where the sub-menu is positioned higher up the page), the 'hover' state will remain on mouse-move and the sub-menu will stay 'shown' for clicking.
Does that help?
PS
posted as an answer (instead of comment) so I could include the image in my explanation.
In your show your support tag, inside add this style
style="padding-bottom:10px;"
So that I am able to operate now without any hover before on click issue. try and let me know. I tried in IE.

I am having problems with my drop down menu. When I try to click on one of the links in the sub-menu, focus is lost from the parent and so the menu disappears, making it impossible to follow the links in the sub-menu. I have searched this forum and google and although there are many similar issues, I can't find any solutions to my particular problem. I would greatly appreciate any help on this. The site is www.emmatuscaloosa.com and the sub-menu is under the "categories" button.
Dont display the sub-menu none.. rather hide it with opacity.
I worked out a pretty simple fix for this by adding some CSS to the sub menu hover state. Im hiding / showing the sub menu using the max-height property and fixed the issue by writing:
.sub-menu:hover {
max-height:100%
}
That simple! Whenever the mouse is hovering on any sub menu item the menu must stay visible, allowing enough time to click on the enclosed links. Not sure if this is the "proper" way to fix the issue but it's working like a charm.
Dont' use focus. There are other ways, for example you could use :target or :hover to open the submenu. Using target, you will have to add an id to the submenu.
Target:
.sub-menu{display:none;}
#categories:target{display:block}
Another way is to use Javascript.

I have a link hover effect on the top five links that I snagged online somewhere.
What I want to do is add a smooth css drop down menu from the "Resources" link but when I tried to play with it, nothing worked. I don't understand a whole lot that's going on with that current code in regards to that hover, and I'd like the link hover to stay the same, just have a drop down menu with links when hovered over.
The site I am developing is http://181.224.157.58/~differ65/hangfungsf.com/ and I am trying to get the menu to stay on when the mouse is hovering over it. I am not sure what is wrong, so can someone have a look please?
I think that the animation time of the menu is to slow.
When i hover over the menu and go down immediately it causes the menu to disappear because as i go down with my mouse the menu is not loaded yet.
You should speed up the animation or remove it to fix this issue.
I am working on this philippedecor.com site and I am having a difficulty in figuring out this css issue.
When I on mouse over on "Main categories" that appears on the right side, it shows a drop down with links in it.
Two things happens,
1) in IE(7) - the drop down hides behind another div
2) in both ie and ff, it pushes other div below that to go down and on mouse out, it looks fine.
I am not sure which css property can fix this.
please help me out

In Firefox, I also see a tiny bit of the background showing through the menu, as you can see. Mousing over this thing triggers a mouseout event, closing the menu. In IE 7, I don't see the push-down effect, only the hiding of the menu under the Flash panel and everything below it.
To prevent the menu pushing down other elements on your page, you should use position: absolute on #downmenu and probably incorporate it into the div containing "Main Categories" to position it in the right place. Use an appropiate z-index will likely prevent the drop down menu from popping under another div in IE (untested, as I don't have a debugging tool for IE at the university where I'm typing this message now).
Furthermore, I think you shouldn't use two menus containing exactly the same content, that can be confusing to visitors of your site (actually, I didn't read your post well enough and moused over the left instance). Also, you shouldn't put text in images without providing alternate texts, screen readers and the like can't "see" it this way (preferably use a suitable image replacement technique). And all those s in the lis are totally unnecessary and not according to rules for semantic HTML; just use padding on them or something. By the way, you should make the rounded cursors of 'Main categories' transparent (now two little white corners are shown). Just my $ 0.02...
I've tried the traditional Javascript rollover method and CSS background switching method, but nothing seems to work -- apparently when you're hovering over the close button you're actually...not.
Using Lightbox Gallery plugin in Wordpress.
Any suggestions?
Have a good one,
Andrew
button you're actually...not.
Indeed, You're actually hovering the whole picture (except the right and left third which is for next/prev button).
Try using FireBug, Use it and you'll know what are you really hovering over.
