Drop-down-menu looks strange (pure css) - html

Having trouble with how the drop-down-menu looks like when the mouse hovers over it. Note that the problem only started when I converted my nav li's from fixed to fluid. (instead of specifying it in px I specify it in %)
Here is my code:
* {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
}
body {
font-family: arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
font-size: 100%;
width: 99%;
max-width: 800px;
margin: 0 auto;
background-color: rgba(255, 248, 228, 0.95);
border: 2px solid #585858;
}
a:link {
color: #e07400;
}
a:visited {
color: gray;
}
a:hover,
a:focus {
font-style: italic;
}
header img {
float: left;
width: 100%;
max-width: 136.078px;
}
.orange_header {
color: #e07400;
}
header h1 {
margin: 0;
font-size: 200%;
text-shadow: 2px 1px 1px black;
/*text-align: center;*/
padding-left: 7em;
padding-top: 0.7em;
padding-bottom: 0.5em;
}
/*====================NAV MENU========================*/
#nav_menu a {
margin: 0;
}
#nav_menu a.current {
color: white;
display: block;
background-color: #a78349;
}
#nav_menu ul {
list-style-type: none;
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
position: relative;
height: 34px;
}
#nav_menu ul li {
float: left;
/*width:165.985px;*/
/*(800-136.06)/4 - fixed layout - uncomment to see that the dropdown menu at the lessons tab looks fine*/
width: 20.748125%;
/* 165.985/800*100 - here the dropdown menu looks strange...how to I fix this?*/
}
#nav_menu ul li a {
display: block;
text-align: center;
text-decoration: none;
padding: 0.5em 0;
margin: 0;
background-color: #ab6b06;
color: white;
}
#nav_menu ul ul {
display: none;
position: absolute;
top: 100%;
}
#nav_menu ul ul li {
float: none;
}
#nav_menu ul li:hover>ul {
display: block
}
#nav_menu>ul::after {
content: "";
clear: both;
display: block;
}
<body>
<header>
<img src="images/guitarlogo2.png" alt="Guitar" height="109.93">
<h1 class="orange_header">Annemie's Guitar School</h1>
</header>
<nav id="nav_menu">
<ul>
<li>Home</li>
<li>Useful links</li>
<li>Lessons
<ul>
<li>Sitting position</li>
<li>Reading music</li>
<li>Right Hand Technique</li>
<li>Left Hand Technique</li>
<li>Practising and Memorization</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>Bio</li>
</ul>
</nav>
</body>

Change this css:
#nav_menu ul li {
float: left;
/* width: 165.985px; */
width: 20.748125%;
}
to this
#nav_menu > ul > li {
float: left;
/* width: 165.985px; */
width: 20.748125%;
}

How do I make the width of my sub-menu links the same as its parent?

I am very new to programming and am working on a website as a project for a class. I am attempting to create a drop down menu, but I continually run into an issue where my links in the drop down sub-menu are not taking up the full width I would like. See the pic below.
https://i.stack.imgur.com/u6koe.png
I would like the link and thus the hovered white background to extend the full width of the sub-menu but I cannot figure out how to make it work.
Here is my HTML:
<header id="mainheader">
<nav>
<ul id="menu">
<li>About Me</li>
<li>Creativity
<ul class="submenu">
<li>Skiing</li>
<li>Island</li>
<li>Cooking</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>Revisions</li>
</ul>
</nav>
</header>
Here is my CSS:
body {
margin-top: 0px;
font-family: 'Segoe UI', Tahoma, Geneva, Verdana, sans-serif;
margin-left: auto;
margin-right: auto;
background-color: aquamarine;
}
#mainheader {
display: block;
position: fixed;
top: 0;
left: 0;
width: 100%;
background-color: #818181;
text-align: center;
}
#menu {
padding: 0;
margin: 0;
}
#menu li {
display: inline-block;
list-style: none;
padding-top: 10px;
padding-bottom: 10px;
position: relative;
}
#menu li a {
text-decoration: none;
font-weight: bold;
color: white;
padding: 10px 30px;
}
#menu li a:hover {
background-color: white;
color: black;
}
#menu li ul.submenu {
height: auto;
width: 133px;
background: #818181;
position: absolute;
display: none;
padding: 0;
margin-top: 10px;
}
#menu li:hover ul.submenu {
display: block;
}
#menu li ul.submenu li {
width: 133px;
}
#menu li ul.submenu li a {
text-decoration: none;
padding: 10px 0px;
}
Any assistance is appreciated.
Add display: inline-block; and width: 100%; to your #menu li ul.submenu li a css rule.

margin-top: 0px;

I really recommend to look at bootstrap's drop down menu. It is easy to use and most things are already done for you. good luck
Here is the link: https://www.w3schools.com/bootstrap/bootstrap_dropdowns.asp
your code is bit confusing , i have created a simple demo for you how to do it.
here is my HTML code

You should refer to Hanlin Chong's CodePen which utilizes #media queries to handle responsive behavior based on max-width of the screen.
Or start with the basic W3Schools Responsive Navbar tutorial: https://www.w3schools.com/howto/howto_js_topnav_responsive.asp
You should read about #media rule in CSS3. Here is url Click. There is no other way to do that without bootstrap. Good luck!

I used the navigation bar from: http://css-snippets.com/drop-down-navigation/
Anything that is in the document flow is going to affect the position of the menu. So you would would have to take the h3 out of the flow by positioning it absolutely.
#toptext {
margin: 5px 0px 0px 10px;
padding: 0;
font-style: bold;
font-size: 2em;
color: white;
position: absolute;
}
This has other issues but solves your initial problem.
html,
body {
height: 100%;
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
width: 100%;
}
#toptext {
margin: 5px 0px 0px 10px;
padding: 0;
/*
display: inline-block;
float: left;
*/
font-style: bold;
font-size: 2em;
color: white;
position: absolute;
}
.nav ul {
list-style: none;
background-color: #444;
text-align: center;
padding: 0;
margin: 0;
}
.nav li {
font-family: 'Oswald', sans-serif;
font-size: 1.2em;
line-height: 40px;
text-align: left;
}
.nav a {
text-decoration: none;
color: #fff;
display: block;
padding-left: 15px;
border-bottom: 1px solid #888;

Its because your h3 is inside the nav div. try making the h3 absolute positioned and your .nav class relatively positioned.
