MVC How make a logout button - html

First CSS isnt my strong skill. Im following this example to create my menu bar
http://www.w3schools.com/css/tryit.asp?filename=trycss_navbar_horizontal_black_active
First I try put it on jsFiddle but doesnt look the same
I can make the green selected change when user select different button. Can change between Login and Username when user is authenticated.
In my View I change it to something like:
<ul>
<li><a class="active" href="#home">Home</a></li>
<li>News</li>
<li>Contact</li>
<li>About</li>
<li>Login</li>
<li> Welcome Administrator Logout </li>
</ul>
But doesnt stay on same line and doesnt look to good. Any suggestion on how improve my UI? Make it stay on same line or change the approach?
Current CSS:
<style>
body {
background-color: black;
}
ul {
list-style-type: none;
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
overflow: hidden;
background-color: #333;
}
li {
float: left;
}
li a {
display: block;
color: white;
text-align: center;
padding: 14px 16px;
text-decoration: none;
}
li a:hover:not(.active) {
background-color: #111;
}
.active {
background-color: #4CAF50;
}
</style>

I'd updated your jsFiddle
You should separate the Welcome administrator message from the Logout button

I improve the style using a door image.
<ul>
<li><a class="active" href="#home">Home</a></li>
<li>News</li>
<li>Contact</li>
<li>About</li>
<li style="float:right"><a href="#about">Login
<img src="http://i66.tinypic.com/25oxgxz.jpg" border="0"></a></li>
<li style="float:right"><a href="#Logout" style="color: red">Welcome Administrator
<img src="http://i64.tinypic.com/157n953.png" border="0"></a></li>
</ul>

border not working correctly on links html

So I'm learning to make websites in html and css. recently i encountered the error which didn't happened to me before: then i adding border to link in css, i cant get bottom and top borders to appear (that's a huge issue because i want to use border-bottom)
a.navi:link{color: black;}
a.navi:hover{color: black;
border-bottom: 5px solid #0ecf5b;}
#navigation li{
display: inline-block;
font-family: Courier New;
font-style: italic;
font-size: 32px;
padding: 5px 25px;
background: #ffffff;
/*border-bottom: 5px solid #0ecf5b;*/
}
however if I'm adding border-bottom: to navigation li{} im getting this border
(#navigation li{} is list items surrounded by
<a href="..." class="navi">
tags)
Html code:
<nav id="navigation">
<ul>
<li>Home</li>
<li>Some-Stuff</li>
<li>About</li>
<li>Contacts</li>
<li>Others</li>
</ul>
</nav>
Put your <a> tags inside your <li> tags.
For example:
<li>Home</li>
Here is a working example: https://jsfiddle.net/kb3su8og/
I'm assuming you want your links underlined, which would be better if you created a div underneath the link and the colored that appropriately, but to do borders try something like this for your html:
<nav id="navigation">
<ul class="navi">
<li>Home</li>
<li>Some-Stuff</li>
<li>About</li>
<li>Contacts</li>
<li>Others</li>
</ul>
and have your css reflect the changes with:
navi > a:hover {
border-bottom //that stuff
What that does is when a link is hovered over it does whatever you want. I am away from my computer so I can not test the code but I think this will work if not there are tons of youtube tutorials on this exact matter. Have a nice day!
Make sure you are using <a> tag inside <li> tag, it should be
<nav id="navigation">
<ul>
<li>Stuff</li>
</ul>
</nav>
ul{list-style:none;}
a{display:block;text-decoration:none;}
li{display:inline-block;}
li:hover > a{color: black;border-bottom: 5px solid #0ecf5b;}
#navigation a{
font-family: Courier New;
font-style: italic;
font-size: 32px;
padding: 5px 25px;
}
<nav id="navigation">
<ul>
<li>Stuff</li>
<li>Stuff</li>
<li>Stuff</li>
</ul>
</nav>
I think the more standard way to do what you want would be to put your a tags inside your li's, and use styles to make sure they fill the whole space, such as display: block.
ul {
list-style: none;
width: 200px;
}
li a.navi {
display: block;
padding: 5px;
border: 1px solid black;
cursor: pointer;
text-align: center;
}
li a.navi:hover {
background-color: #cccccc;
}
<ul>
<li><a class="navi">One link</a></li>
<li><a class="navi">Second link</a></li>
</ul>
This may not be the style you are going for, I'm just guessing based on the snippet you provided.

navbar change color on click html

I'm running into issues on my first ever website. I have successfully created a navigation bar at the top which looks and acts somewhat how I want it to (other than the color scheme but that can come later). The issue is that whenever I click a different link on the bar I want that box to change color, but it is currently stuck highlighted on the homepage. I think this is something super simple but i cannot find it. Thank you for the help.
body
{
font-family:sans-serif;
width: 100%;
margin: 0px;
}
/* upper strip holding the tabs*/
ul
{
list-style-type: none;
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
overflow: hidden;
position:fixed;
top: 0px;
width: 100%;
background-color: #328CC1
}
li
{
float:left;
border-right:3px solid #30FFE3;
}
li a
{
display: block;
color: whitesmoke;
text-decoration: none;
padding: 14px 16px;
text-align: center;
}
li a:hover:not(.active)
{
background-color: #111;
}
a.active
{
background-color: #EAB126
}
<ul>
<li><a class="active" href="#home">Home</a></li>
<li>Academics</li>
<li>Athletics</li>
<li>Contact</li>
</ul>
Change this:
a.active
background-color: #EAB126
}
to this:
li a:focus {
background-color: #EAB126
}
Here is the JSFiddle demo
This does what you ask BUT if this is a navigation bar then bear in mind that the control will lose focus as soon as you change page. It would be better if you use Javascript/JQuery to handle that much more easily.
A typical way of handling this is to have each page have a class that includes the page name: <div class="academics"> for example.
Now modify your header (within the page div) as follows:
<ul>
<li><a class="for_home" href="#home">Home</a></li>
<li><a class="for_academics" href="#academics">Academics</a></li>
<li><a class="for_athletics" href="#athletics">Athletics</a></li>
<li><a class="forcontact" href="#contact">Contact</a></li>
</ul>
this would be followed by the css as follows:
.home .for_home, .academics .for_academics, .athletics .for_athletics, .contact .for_contact {
background-color: #EAB126;
}
Then the menu item for the current page will be highlighted.
Congratulations on your first website!

HTML CSS .dropdown:hover trouble

I have header that is moving when I scroll my page down. I have added several buttons to it, and they are moving with it.
My problem is that my drop-button is showing its content when I am not hovering over the button itself.
My code:
/*------------------------------------dropdown menu start*/
.dropbtn {
background-color: #B9B9B9;
color: white;
font-size: 30px;
font-weight:bold;
border: none;
cursor: pointer;
position: relative;
left: 300px;
top: -18px;
}
.dropdown {
position: relative;
display: inline-block;
}
.dropdown-content {
display: none;
position: absolute;
left: 300px;
background-color: #ffffff;
min-width: 160px;
box-shadow: 0px 8px 16px 0px rgba(0,0,0,0.2);
top: 18px;
}
.dropdown-content a {
color: black;
padding: 12px 16px;
text-decoration: none;
display: block;
}
.dropdown-content a:hover {background-color: #ffffff}
.dropdown:hover .dropdown-content {
display: block;
}
.dropdown:hover .dropbtn {
color: #4d4d4d;
}
/*------------------------------------dropdown menu end*/
And a picture(black dot is a mouse location) :
What can I do to fix this?
Your problems run deep. I don't even really want to fix the entire menu because I'd basically be writing one from scratch and you can do that yourself, but what I will do is point out some issues with this to help you find your way:
The core of your design:
<div class="header-cont">
<div class="header">
<img src="">
<logotext>MyCompanyName</logotext>
<button>Home</button>
<div class="dropdown">
<button class="dropbtn">Products</button>
<div class="dropdown-content">
Product 1
Product 2
Product 3
</div>
</div>
<button>Locations</button>
<button>Contacts</button>
<button>History</button>
<div class="dropdown">
<button class="dropbtn">Language</button>
<div class="dropdown-content">
Language 1
Language 2
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
There are a number of things here I would never do:
<logotext> is not a valid HTML markup. You probably want a <span class="logotext"> or something along those lines.
Your navigation menu is comprised of <div>s with <button>s and other <div>s with <a> tags in them. This is a bizarre and confusing way to organize a menu. You should consider using <ul> tags and order your sub menu with <li> instead.
The problem you are directly running into is caused by the fact that you have your home <button> element with a left: 300px on it that your <div class="dropdown"> doesn't have.
A much easier and more logical way to organize a nav menu:
<ul id='menu'>
<li><a href='#'>Planets</a>
<ul>
<li><a href='#'>Mercury</a></li>
<li><a href='#'>Venus</a></li>
<li><a href='#'>Earth</a></li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><a href='#'>Stars</a>
<ul>
<li><a href='#'>Sun </a></li>
<li><a href='#'>Betelgeuse</a></li>
<li><a href='#'>Bellatrix</a></li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><a href='#'>Galaxies</a>
<ul>
<li><a href='#'>Milky Way </a></li>
<li><a href='#'>Andromeda</a></li>
<li><a href='#'>Antennae</a></li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
I just got this from google and here's the JSFiddle for it.
Here is a CodePen Example
Your HTML should have a mark similar to this as per your CSS
<div class="navbar">
<div class="navItem">Home</div>
<div class="navItem product-dropdown">
<span>Products</span>
<div class="dropdown-content">
<ul>
<li>One</li>
<li>Two</li>
<li>Three</li>
</ul>
</div>
</div>
</div>
Then as for styling something similar to this:
.dropdown-content{
display:none;
}
.product-dropdown:hover .dropdown-content {
display: block;
}
.navItem {
float: left;
padding: 10px;
}
li {
list-style-type: none;
}

How to change the color of the active link in the menu

Here is the menu html code for the nav bar:
<nav>
<div id="menu">
<ul>
<li>Home Page</li>
<li>History</li>
<li>Events</li>
<li>Information</li>
<li>Photos</li>
<li>Contact Us</li>
<li>Useful Links</li>
</ul>
</div>
</nav>
and here's the code for css :
nav{
float: left;
margin-top: 15px;
}
nav ul {
list-style: none;
margin: 0;
padding: 0px 0px 0px 0px;
}
nav li {
display: inline-block;
}
nav a {
padding: 8px 0px;
margin-right:71px;
color: #ffffff;
display: block;
text-decoration: none;
text-transform: capitalize;
font-size: 13px;
}
nav a:hover {
color: #cccccc;
}
So for example, if I am currently looking at history page, the text "History" in the navbar will be red. How can I do such a thing?
#edit: As stated in a comment, I am trying to avoid jquery.
This is a great resource for beginners: W3Schools
This page on that site contains the answer to your question: CSS Text Formating
I don't mean to be vague, but your question is a little unclear.
just add active class name in the active state link.
<li>Home Page</li>
<li>History</li>
<li><a class="active" href="events.html">Events</a></li>
<li>Information</li>
And in your CSS
nav a.active {
color: red;
}
You will need to use jQuery to add an active class to the anchor tag that corresponds with the page that you are on. Once that is done you can style it like this a.active {color:red}
If these are individual HTML pages you could also just manually apply the active class to the anchor tag for that page.
The CSS attribute you are describing is a CSS selector. Your CSS will be as follows, which will target all "active" hrefs in the div ID menu
#menu a:active {
color: blue;
}

Css menu assistance, dropdown issue

Ok hey guys.
So what I try to acheive is to have a menu in the topnav of my site and when hovring the mouse over to show some stuff in a list under it.
so far I'm working on local on a test html file until I get it working.
so what i got so far is this menu:
<ul id="menu">
<li>Notifications
<ul>
<li id="foot-notify-954>
Xtesting left a comment for your blog 22 hours ago
</li>
<li id="foot-notify-953>
X
<p>testing left a comment for your blog <span>22 hours ago</span></p>
</li>
</ul>
</li>
and my css code:
ul {
font-family: Arial, Verdana;
font-size: 14px;
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
list-style: none;
}
ul li {
display: block;
position: relative;
float: left;
}
li ul { display: none }
ul li a {
display: block;
text-decoration: none;
color: #ffffff;
border-top: 1px solid #ffffff;
padding: 5px 15px 5px 15px;
background: #2C5463;
margin-left: 1px;
white-space: nowrap;
}
ul li a:hover { background: #617F8A }
li:hover ul {
display: block;
position: absolute;
}
li:hover li {
float: none;
font-size: 11px;
}
li:hover a { background: #617F8A }
li:hover li a:hover { background: #95A9B1 }
I think the problem is that I'm having more than 1 <a> hyperlink inside the notifications <li>
id like each li notification to show in 1 line, as in the format, the X button at the start to remove it then the notification itself.
First, you have to check the html syntax:
list should looks like this:
<ul>
<li>Coffee</li>
<li>Tea</li>
<li><a href='#'>Milk</a></li>
</ul>
This tool helps you find the errors (red highlighted):
http://jsbin.com/emowir/1/edit
Here is your example:
<ul id="menu">
<!-- type 1: NOT drop down-->
<li>Home</li>
<!--type 2: drop down-->
<li>About Us
<ul>
<li>The Team</li>
<li>History</li>
<li>Vision</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
What would you like to insert and where?
Your problem does seem to be bad code formatting. This is a clean and edited version of your code. The code "breaking" is an issue of CSS formatting. Using inline-blocks instead of blocks helps get things lined up properly, and shifting the background style to the <li> rather than the <a> makes it look better.
Your problem is the following:
ul li a {
display: block;
This makes every link you insert into the list a block. Try start to float things like in this example I made from your code, http://jsfiddle.net/xN8sc/1/
