How to make a double checkbox dropdown nav menu html/css only? - html

I'm having some trouble making a nav menu and its sub menu to display via the pseudo checkbox toggle. I looked at some guides and tried some, but I'm not getting the result I wanted -- the menus does not appear when toggle the checkbox on.

Is it to do with the html? The CSS? What could be interfering from displaying the menu and its submenu? :/
Much appreciated for the long run.
(P.S. I have other source image used in here, though that should not conflict with what I'm trying to resolve.)

In your code the <ul> tag is the sibling of selector input#A
But you have written css code as if .dropdown-menu is the sibling of selector input#A. This is why your code at this particular point doesn't work.
You have to target <ul> when input#A is clicked. <ul> is the sibling of input#A.
Change the css code on line 81 as below
input#A:checked ~ ul li {
display: block;
max-height: 100%;
}
This code change will make your sub-menu visible when you click Menu as shown in below image.
i'm mentioning the fix only for this particular point. In your codepen i can see that you've made this same mistake in few other places. You have to fix it.
Hope this helps.

Let me know if you need any other help.
Thank You.
All you are missing is some styling in your .wrap_logo class:
.wrap_logo {
display: flex;
align-items: center;
}
Also if you want to have some space between the elements and the borders of the page you can just add some padding.
Try it:
.logo{
position: absolute;
margin-top: 15px;
}
.name{
posirion: absolute;
margin-left: 70px;
}

Hero section under transparent navigational menu

Unorder list not available in my website's footer?

I'm creating a website and wanted to put the contact info in the footer. I created the footer using several nested divs: a footer div --> footer-container div --> footer-left div and footer-right div (using display: flex i put them side by side with each other). The footer-left div contains a ul (unordered list) of external links; the footer-right div contains social media icons. I've included the code below:
.footer {
height: 150px;
width: 100vw;
background-color: #7D594F;
}
.footer-container {
display: block;
justify-content: space-between;
align-items: center;
}
.footer-left {
border: 2px solid red;
}
.footer-left ul {
display: flex;
justify-content: space-between;
align-items: center;
list-style-type: none;
border: 2px solid blue;
}
.footer-left ul li {
color: #ffffff;
font-family: montserrat, sans-serif;
text-shadow: none;
text-align: center;
margin: 0px;
width: 150px;
border: 2px solid green;
}
.footer-right {
display: flex;
justify-content: center;
align-items: center;
}
/*to scale down the icons, the #facebook should always be 10px bigger than the #instagram*/
#facebook {
height: 40px;
width: 40px;
}
#instagram {
height: 30px;
width: 30px;
}
.footer p {
color: #ffffff;
font-family: montserrat, sans-serif;
font-size: 10px;
text-align: center;
}
<div class="footer">
<div class="footer-container">
<!--Using flex to push both containers on opposite sides of the footer-->
<div class="footer-left">
<ul>
<li>About</li>
<li>Contact</li>
<li>We Are Hiring</li>
<li>Our Financial Services</li>
<li>Our Legal Services</li>
<li>Kangen Water</li>
</ul>
</div>
<div class="footer-right">

<img id="instagram" src="/images/icons/noun_instagram_3350460.png" alt="Link to Instagram">
</div>
</div>
</div>
But the unordered list is not visible. I created bordered around each element to make it easier to visualize:
body {
margin: 0;
}
.footer {
height: 150px;
width: 100vw;
background-color: #7D594F;
}
.footer-container {
display: flex;
justify-content: space-between;
align-items: center;
}
.footer-left {
border: 2px solid red;
}
.footer-left ul {
display: flex;
/*flex-flow: column nowrap;*/
flex-flow: row wrap;
justify-content: space-around;
align-items: center;
list-style-type: none;
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
border: 2px solid blue;
}
.footer-left ul li {
color: #ffffff;
font-family: montserrat, sans-serif;
text-shadow: none;
text-align: center;
margin: 0px;
padding: .5em 1em;
width: 150px;
border: 2px solid green;
}
.footer-right {
display: flex;
justify-content: around;
align-items: center;
}
/*to scale down the icons, the #facebook should always be 10px bigger than the #instagram*/
#facebook {
height: 40px;
width: 40px;
}
#instagram {
height: 30px;

}
.footer p {

text-align: center;

Make a dropdown menu in flexbox navbar

I want the dropdown menu with the flex container so that i can create 4 columns of full page width, also I will make drop down menu on other tabs too.
By adding position: relative to the nav and position: absolute to the dropdown, will make the dropdown position/size relative to the nav
Setting flex: 1 on the dropdown's flex items (li) will make them stretch horizontally
Updated/added these 3 rules
nav {
position: relative;
background-color: #f8f8f8;
display: flex;
justify-content: space-between;
}
li:hover > ul.drop-menu li {
display: flex;
flex: 1;
}
li > ul.drop-menu {
position: absolute;
display: flex;
left: 0;
top: 100%;
width: 100%;
}

I developed a large responsive_flex.css file for my works and my jumperl.com site.
While I was simplifying to the maximum, I found this post, here is the solution good man.
/* Menu Dropdown! please use div */
.dropdown{
display: flex;
flex-wrap: wrap;
flex-direction:column;
}
.dropdown > .dropdown-title{
/* put the height and width here! */
}
.dropdown > .dropdown-sub{
display: none;
z-index: 1;
flex-direction: column; /* or row */
}
.dropdown:hover > .dropdown-sub {
display: flex;
}.dropdown:hover > .dropdown-sub > .dropdown-option:hover{
background-color: #abcdef;
}
<div class="dropdown" style="background-color:#aaa;">
<div class="dropdown-title" style="background-color:#bbb; border:1px solid #000000;">Titulo</div>
<div class="dropdown-sub" style="background-color: #cccccc;">
<div class="dropdown-option">option 1</div>
<div class="dropdown-option">option 2</div>
<div class="dropdown-option">option 3</div>
</div>
</div>
this resolve one problem about likely position abosolute on sub menu.
Perdón my poor english amico mio

add a div between header and footer that takes up rest of the view height

I am trying to add a div between the header and footer. Both are flex boxes, however the div in between (which in the end needs to be a slider) does not get positioned well. I am trying to get the header on top and the slider to fill up the remaining space of the view height. Only on the scroll it should show the footer (and eventually other div's as well). Somehow I have the feeling flex box is not working correctly..
Basically the same effect as this website: ArsThanea.
Another problem that I have when opening the JSFiddle is that the header and footer do not take the complete width of the view box, although the div does. When running the html and css in the browser using Gulp / Jekyll it works and it takes up the complete width.
header {
height: 130px;
background: white;
display: -ms-flexbox;

DEMO: JSFiddle
Taking a look at your Fiddle, there are many improvements you can make to your markup & CSS, but coming to your issue first, the reason why its not sliding down as expected is this :
position: absolute
you added this to your main div which should go in between .projects-wrapper. First thing I would say is make this a flex as well instead of block element.
Secondly, add a wrapper to your entire project body & Make that flex. like so
<div class="wrapper"> //this should be flex
<header>..</header> //this "could" be flex depending on its contents
<div class="projects-wrapper"></div>
<footer>...</footer> //this "could" be flex depending on its contents
</div>
let me know if you are facing any other problems
I made code for You, please have a look, and tell mi is it good for You.
fiddle
I use calc() to do that
Use 100vh to get the 100% view-port height and subtract the height of header and footer.
min-height: calc(100vh - 50px);
where 50px is the height of header+footer.
