Hi i added this on my nav menu CSS. It will add a triangle effect on the bottom of my menus. The problem is that, it has added it on the sub menus too..
.nav-menu li a:hover:after {
content: "";
display: block;
border: 10px solid #000;
border-bottom-color: #48c5f2;
position: absolute;
bottom: 0px;
left: 50%;
margin-left: -12px;
}
How can i remove the triangle effect in my submenus?
I'm guessing i should put something like this?
.nav-menu li li a:hover:after { SOME CODES I DONT KNOW SO IT WILL REMOVE THE TRIANGLE; }
If you want to overwrite it, use:
.nav-menu li li a:hover:after {
content:none;
}
If that's the correct selector, it will work assuming it is more specific, and it is placed after the initial declaration..
Alternatively, if you don't like that approach, you could just prevented it from being applied to the children by using the child selector > on the initial declaration:
.nav-menu > li a:hover:after {}
Basically, this is applying the initial styling to the li element who is a direct child of .nav-menu. Thus, the children elements, (.nav-menu li li) won't receive the styling, and thus won't have to be reset.
Aside from that, there is also always the :not selector.

I am trying to set properties of the ul and li items within a class but it's not working. This is for the wordpress jetpack social media icons.
I have
.widget_wpcom_social_media_icons_widget .genericon {
font-size: 21px;
}
.widget_wpcom_social_media_icons_widget ul {
list-style-type: none;
}
.widget_wpcom_social_media_icons_widget li.menu-item {
margin-right: 100px;
}
Only the first one, setting the size, seems to work. The others don't. The second one is to remove the bullets before the media icons and the second one is to add a space between the icons as the icons are inside span blocks. Why are they not working?
To remove bullet points use
.widget_wpcom_social_media_icons_widget ul li {
list-style: none; }
You cannot give margin to a span since it is a inline level element, instead you can make the .menu-item as inline block and give margin this way
.widget_wpcom_social_media_icons_widget li.menu-item {
display:inline-block;
margin-right: 100px;}
My sub menu disappears immediately after I move my mouse pointer to scroll towards the sub menu. Feel like I have screwed my CSS somewhere. I could not figure out after several attempts to make it stay active. I followed few tutorials(have a look at it) where they have called the hover on the ul instead of a(anchor), I tried similar ways but could not achieve what I want. Please point out where I have made the mistake. Here is my fiddle(my code). Sample CSS code for hover is below.
#topnav ul li ul
{
display: none;
position: absolute;
text-align: left;
background:#510000;
top:30px;
}
#topnav ul li:hover ul
{
display: block;
}
Put the padding on your list items instead of your ul or container. That way the dropdown overlaps your hover element and your browser never thinks that you hovered out of the element. See this:
#topnav li {
display:inline-block;
padding:10px 0;
margin-right:30px;
position: relative;
}
http://jsfiddle.net/jeffreyTang/q5cmqLrf/1/
You can also give
#topnav ul li ul {
padding-top:30px
}
instead of:
#topnav ul li ul {
top:30px
}
The problem is with your padding being at the nav level and you trying to make the drop down appear below it. Because you position your dropdown away from the parent li, you're no longer hovering over it when you move your mouse down. To fix, remove the padding from the nav and add it to the li.
remove padding from here:
#topnav{
display:block;
clear:both;
width:500px;
margin:0;
padding:0;
text-align:center;
}
add to here:
#topnav li{
display:inline-block;
padding: 15px 0 15px 5px;
margin-right:30px;
position: relative;
}
remove top from here:
#topnav ul li ul {
display: none;
position: absolute;
text-align: left;
background:#510000;
}

Here's a way to do it (it's more of a trick):
http://jsfiddle.net/zj8krh95/5/
#topnav ul li:hover {
padding-bottom: 10px;
margin-bottom: -10px; /* so that the menubar's height stays the same */
}
#topnav ul li:hover ul {
margin-top: -10px; /* so that the menu opens at the right position */
}
Basically, on hover, i extend the menu item's height so that no mouseout is trigger when i move down to the menu.
So basically i want to make my menu keep in hover state when their sub menu hovered,
i'd already try like this
but it still won't change as i want, where did i go wrong?
here's my snippet
#topmenu li li:hover a:hover{
color: #000;
text-decoration: none;
background-color: #fff;
text-shadow: 0 0 1px #000;
}
regards,
Not sure why you're hiding your sub menu with left: -999em; rather than display: none;.
Here is an updated jsFiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/JmkaM/1/ that uses display: none; and display: block; to show the sub menu.
What you want to do is display the sub menu when the user hovers a top level li. So you would do that like this li:hover ul. For your specifc CSS modify the following:
#topmenu li ul {
/* left: -999em; remove */
display: none; /* add */
}
/* add the following */
#topmenu li:hover ul {
display: block;
}
If you really need to use left for some reason then do the following:
#topmenu li:hover ul {
left: 0;
}
It will bring your sub menu back from being pushed -999em to the left. Though it might not be placed quite where you want it.
UPDATE 1
This will be the last time I help you. You need to learn that good feedback will help others help you. I understand that you are new but responding to answers with, "doesn't do what I want," does not help us or you.
I'm just guessing here at what you want based on the jsFiddle you linked to in the comments.
Here's the new jsFiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/JmkaM/2/
Below you will see the changes I made, before and after. I only highlighted the properties that I changed for brevity.
Before
#topmenu ul { /* ... */ }
#topmenu li ul {
padding-top: 0px;
padding-bottom: 0px;
}
#topmenu li li:first-child {
margin-top: 14px;
border: 0;
}
AFTER
/* added child selector '>' so only top level navigation
items have a background of red */
#topmenu > ul { }
/* set padding on all sides to 0 */
#topmenu li ul {
padding: 0;
}
/* removed whole rule - #topmenu li li:first-child */
UPDATE 2
Try this:
#topmenu > ul > li:hover {
background-color: white;
}
#topmenu > ul > li:hover > a {
color: black;
}
See this Fiddle :

I'm trying to create a hover effect for the whole anchor element but it's not working, as soon as the mouse is out of the text the drop down menu disappears:
Here is the test site.
Css:
.menu{}
.menu li{float:left;margin-right:24px;list-style-type:none;height:46px;}
.menu li a{width:100%;text-transform: uppercase;color:#39444A;text-decoration:none;font-weight: bold;font-size:18px;display:block;height:46px;}
.menu li a:hover{border-bottom-style: solid;border-bottom-width: 2px;border-bottom-color: #E87D05;color:#E87D05;height:46px;display:block;}
ul.sub_navigation , .sub_navigation
{
position: absolute;
display: none;
z-index: 100;
background-image: url('/images/menu-bg-png.png');
background-repeat:repeat-y;
padding:10px 0px 10px 28px;
}
Where am I getting it wrong?
CSS ( add ):
.menu li a {
position: relative;
z-index: 5;
}
In your case is because the div #slider-container is overlaping the #header div. I see that the #slider-container is absolute.
In this case you can add extra 20 - 30px on the TOP property and get rid of the padding-top.
The other thing to do is just to add position:relative and z-index:10 (for example) on the #header div
Try this:
.menu > li:hover .sub_navigation {
display: block;
}
the anchor elements have the size of the text and nothing else.
The space between link and link is the right margin of the li.
remove
li {margin_right: 40px}
and set
a {padding_right: 40px}
Is there a way to change the css property for example of a box when an element (inside the ) is hover?
for example if I have:
<table>
<tr><td><a>.....</td></tr>
</table>
I want to change the property of the container td when the link a has the mouse over. Is it possible?
Sorry, I have not explained well.
I have a , not a table...it was only an example....
I have
<ul>
<li><a>.....
in my css I have:
#navigation li a {
text-decoration: none;
color: #333;
text-transform: none;
}
#navigation li:hover {
color: white;
background-color: #333;
}
#navigation li a:hover {
color: white;
background-color: #333;
}
but It does not works because if I go on the link it's ok, but if I go with the mouse in the li but off the link the color of the text does not change...
Instead of
#navigation li a:hover {
try
#navigation li:hover a {
but It does not works because if I go on the link it's ok, but if I go with the mouse in the li but off the link the color of the text does not change...
That's because you're putting the hover on the link itself. If you want the link to react when you mouse over the li, simply change where you put the hover pseudo-class:
li:hover a {
color: #d2d2d2;
}
This basically says "when the li is hovered, the link inside it should change to these styles."
Alternatively, you can add padding to the link (ex - padding: 5px), making its reaction field larger. So:
li a {
display: block; /* Required to make it honor padding. */
padding: 10px;
}
li a:hover {
color: #d2d2d2;
}
As long as you don't have your li elements set to a larger size than the a element (via height, width, margin, and/or padding), then the li will "shrink-wrap" the a and be the same size as the total size of the link.
You cant change a property of a parent element, but you can trigger a hover event on the parent td itself:
table td:hover {
background-color: red;
}
You could add display: block to the anchor element which would make the anchor fill the li... Depending on indentation on the ul etc etc..
li a { display: block; }
