How to change a horizontal drop down menu to do this?

6 New Member
I have a working horizontal drop-down menu that is css driven, on hover sub-menu items currently appear below the parent item. I however, would like to know if I can make them appear ABOVE the parent item instead. I know it's not traditional but the site I'm working on would be perfect if I can get it working!

I'd appreciate any and all info!

I thought I had checked this in Firefox but apparently I didn't. It's what Doc was talking about. The menu is shoved all the way down and almost off of the page. You can see a few pixels of it.

As for fixing all of this... The image you're using for the menu's background is requiring too much work. Just edit the image to fit to your menu, not vice versa. This should free up a few things for set stylings.

Do you understand the relationship between the browser and an element being styled with a fixed position?


Thanks, Death

Here are the problems: Under IE 5.0, the there is no drop down menu functionality at all. I wanted to implement an alternative stylesheet for IE, but my link to it is apparently broken. What is wrong with my link? I'd

Hi, I've got some problems with horizontal drop down menu. It looks fine under Firefox, a mess under IE. I've noticed the following differences/problems: - Extra space between menu items and bottom border - Disapearing sub <ul>s after second sub menu items. - Space between the last sub menu item and the rest

I am trying to incorporate a CSS drop-down menu into a site (suckerfish menu). The menu gets lost behind the content below it, but only on one of the drop downs (News). The error occurs on all of the browsers I have tested it on (IE6, IE7, Firefox, Opera and Safari). It is probably something simple, but I can't find it! Here is the CSS (using external style sheets): style-temp.css (Main style sheet for the site): * { font-family:...

I am using a nested list for a simple drop-down menu. All CSS and XHTML validate. The menu is displayed properly in 7 different newer browsers including IE7, Firefox, Opera & Safari. I have implemented csshover.htc. In IE6, the menu displays on two lines and the drop-down (Calendar) does not work. Any clue where the problem lies? Url: caz-cc.com/index.htm. Thanks soooo much!
