Putting several links in a line contained in a wrapper - html

I am doing a drop down menu and i want the drop down items to all be in a line and probably drops to the next line on screen resolution. my html is
HTML
<li class="main"> Menu
<ul>
<li class="sub-menu"><a href="#">
<div class="content" style="width:300px;">
<img src="image.jpg"><p>text</p>
</div></a>
</li>
<li class="sub-menu"><a href="#">
<div class="content">
<img src="image.jpg"><p>text</p>
</div></a>
</li>
</ul>
</li>
CSS
.main {float:left; display:inline-block; width:auto}
.sub-menu{float:left; width:300px;}
.content{width:100%}
What I am targeting is when someone clicks the main menu "menu" it drops down to the sub menu "sub-menu" and all sub menus come in line until screen width changes and the last one automatically goes to a next line. Any help will be much appreciated people!!!
Thanks in advance.

Your question is a little hard to understand, but from what I'm guessing, you want to click the main menu, and a sub menu drops down, displaying the contents (img with text).
This might be what you're looking for:
<style>
.main {background-color: red;}
.sub-menu {background-color: blue;}
.sub-menu a {display: inline-block; color: white;}
</style>
<div class="main">
Menu
</div>
<div class="sub-menu">
<img src="image.jpg"> text
<img src="image.jpg"> text
</div>
Where you can make the sub-menu hidden until you click the main menu. You might also want to add some padding to the links for spacing. Colors are there so you can see the layout.
<p> elements automatically drop a line in web display, making them display below the img tags.

HTML auto spacing between text

I realize this has probably been answered before, and if so, please direct me to another page.
I have a menu bar that goes horizontally across my page. I have several links and I want spacing so the links will fill the width of the nav.
CSS:
nav {
width:100%;
float:left;
text-align:center;
}
HTML:
<nav id="menu">
<a id="home" href="index.html">Home</a>
<a id="link" href="link.html">Link</a>
<a id="another" href="really.html">Another</a>
<a id="lalala" href="stupidcode.html">Lalala</a>
<a id="oneMore" href="example.html">One More</a>
</nav>
Using display: table-cell on the elements inside nav works.

Anchored links(" ul li a") when hovering

I'm trying to stop moving objects when hovering.
See what i'm doing here>JSFIDDLE
When hovering the second link (TEST2), it changes to bold property (need to be), but it pushes the other button (TEST) to the left. How can i anchor other elements in the header and stop their movement?
give an item class to normal list elements and seperator class to seperator list element
<div class="header-bg">
<div class="container">
<div class="menu-header">
<nav>
<ul>
<li class="item">Test</li>
<li class="seperator"><span>∴</span></li>
<li class="item">Test2</li>
</ul>
</nav>
</div>
</div>
</div>
and give a fixed width to list elements at .item class
.item {
width:70px;
}
working demo
give them a fixed width, ie width:80px

Drop down leaves gap in navigation when hidden

I'm trying to make my current CSS navigation responsive for mobile devices.
I currently have it set up with a media query so that when the screen width falls below the specified size it changes to block form (stacked) and a menu icon appears on the right hand side of the logo (to later be made into a button).
The problem I'm currently having is that the drop down menu which is used for my second link in the navigation, is causing a gap to appear between the second and third link (as if the drop down content is taking up the space whilst hidden).
I've tried looking for solutions but can't seem to find the right answer for my particular setup. Basically, the link "How It Works" should sit right beneath "Sections" when on mobile.
http://jsfiddle.net/fc45c7p5/
<a href="#">
<img class="logo" src="images/logo.png" alt="Logo" style="width:330px;height:100px"/>
</a>
<div id="menu-icon"></div>
<br></br>
</div>
<div class="navbar">
<ul class="navbar cf">
<li>HOME</li>
<li>SECTIONS
<ul>
<li>RETAIL</li>
<li>HOTEL</li>
<li>RESTAURANT</li>
<li>SHOPPING</li>
</ul>
<li>HOW IT WORKS</li>
<li>OUR EXPERIENCE</li>
<li>TESTIMONIALS</li>
<li>NEWS</li>
<li>CONTACT US</li>
</ul>
</div>
Don't take too much note of the media query max-width of 1008px, I'm aware this isn't standard mobile size, it's just temporary whilst I get it working first.
Any help regarding this is really appreciated.
visibility keeps your elements there without displaying them. You should use display:none when you do not want show the space the hidden element takes. Use display:block to show them again. Add some CSS transitions to the height of the a elements to make the reveal somewhat smoother.
Here : http://jsfiddle.net/6eshy7n2/
Add the following.
ul.navbar ul li { float: none; width: 100%; display:none;}
ul.navbar li:hover > ul li{display: block;}
You have to make the lis inside the uls actually not display when the parent li is not being hovered. When it is hovered you then change the display value to block to make it visible.

CSS to move text to new line on horizontal menu

I have a simple horizontal menu. On some of the menu headings, i would like to split them so the text starts on a new line.
HTML:
<ul class="tabs">
<li>
<div class="home">
Home
</div>
</li>
<li>
<div class="contact">
How to
Contact Us
</div>
</li>
<li>
<div class="products">
About Our
Products
</div>
</li>
</ul>
CSS:
.tabs ul {
list-style: none;
}
.tabs li {
display: inline-block;
}
So, what i am trying to do is, rather than appear as About Our Products.. Instead:
About Our
Products
Here's my fiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/oampz/dWbx5/
Ideally without using br
So like I said in the comment, you can maybe use max-width
HERE is a fiddle using it.
EDIT: I added it to the inline CSS, but you can move it into your CSS page.
Simply use a break <br />?
<div class="products">
About Our<br />Products
</div>
I also prefer to use a float: left; on the li instead of inline-block, it's easier (and more logic) to work with:
http://jsfiddle.net/2EDbr/
<div >
About Our
</div>
<div>
Products
</div>
similarly u can use for all

Make menu and image appear on the same line

I want to make my menu and image appear on the same line but sadly that doesn't seem to be happening. Could anyone tell me why and how I would solve my problem? I've got the following image and menu...
HTML
<div id="header">
<img alt="" height="67" src="Aidanlogo.png" width="400" />
<div id="myslidemenu" class="jqueryslidemenu">
<ul>
<li>Home</li>
<li>Blog</li>
<li>About</li>
<li>Contact</li>
</ul>
<br style="clear: left" />
</div>
</div>
Menu CSS: http://pastebin.com/drMD7gwg
Header CSS
#header {
width: 700px;
margin-left: auto ;
margin-right: auto ;
}
try this
#menu ul li { display: inline; }
Divs are block elements, so by default it will always appear on a separate line.
You could make the image a block and float it left (display:block; float:left;)
You could make your div display:inline-block, or float:right; it, assuming there's room in the parent (700px).
DIV is a block element, so it won't display on the same line as anything else unless you change it's inline property:
#myslidemenu { display:inline; }
Also note that you'll have to modify the <ul> styles to display the <li> tags on a single line. See this link for more on that part.
edit I'm not sure what the jQuery slide menu does to the <div> or <ul> styles - you might have a look in Firebug after it's rendered.
