<!DOCTYPE html>
<head>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="style.css">
</head>

</ul>
</div>
</body>
And my Css:
h1{
text-align:center;
}
Body {
text-align: ;
background: url("http://goo.gl/wkzbXp");
background-size: cover;
background-position: center center;
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-attachment: fixed;
}
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; }
#wrapper
{
width: 1024px;
height: auto;
margin: auto;
}
#menu
{
margin:auto;
width:400px;
height: 100px;
}
#content
{
margin:auto;
width: 760px;
height: auto;
}
.container {
overflow:hidden;
list-style:none;
}
.container li {
float:left;
text-align:center;
margin:20px;
}
.container img {
border:2px solid #000;
display:block;
}
.sortfarve {
color:#000;
}
.hvidfarve {
color:#fff;
}
You can use rgba() , the last parameter can be use to define opacity
.boxed {
background: rgba(123,0,0,0.5);
/*........................^......opacity......_*/
}

I am trying to recreate a website template and I have some issues with my menu and sub-menu. When I want to hover on the sub-menu it disappears , and I know it might be from that gap (margin) , but what can I do without having to delete the margin?
This is my full code: http://dontpad.com/claustack

Compensate for the Margin
Your code had a margin of 20px margin-top:20px;. If you set this to zero and use it with padding-top:20px; it works.
It's still a bit messy, but that does that part :)

How can i center the float element that you can see in this photo? I want to bring it from the left of the web page to the middle, but keeping it at the top of the page?
Here is the code of the HTML:
<html>
<head>
<title>Batch File Generator | Home</title>
</head>
<link href="style.css" rel="stylesheet" >
<ul>
<li><a>Home</a></li>
<li><a>Download</a>
<ul>
<li>32-bit version</li>
<li>64-bit version</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><a>Discussion</a>
<ul>
<li><a>Community forums</li></a>
<li><a>Ask the developers</li></a>
</ul>
</li>
<li><a>News</a></li>
</ul>
</html>
And here is the code of the CSS:
body{
background: url("background.jpg") no-repeat;
background-size: cover;
font-family: Arial;
color: white;
}
ul{
margin: 0px;
padding: 0px;
list-style: none;
}
ul li {
float: left;
width: 200px;
height: 40px;
background-color: black;
opacity: .8;
line-height: 40px;
text-align: center;
font-size: 20px;
}
ul li a {
text-decoration: none;
color: white;
display: block;
}
ul li a:hover {
background-color: green;
}
ul li ul li {
display: none;
}
ul li:hover ul li {
display: block;
}
For HTML Code, use this:
<div class="wrapper">
<div class="middle-content">
<ul>
<li><a>Home</a></li>
<li><a>Download</a>
<ul>
<li>32-bit version</li>
<li>64-bit version</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><a>Discussion</a>
<ul>
<li><a>Community forums</a></li>
<li><a>Ask the developers</a></li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><a>News</a></li>
</ul>
</div>
</div>
For css code:
html{
height: 100%;
}
body{
background: url("background.jpg") no-repeat;
background-size: cover;
font-family: Arial;
color: white;
height: 100%;

width: 100%;
height: 100%;

display: block;
}
ul li a:hover {
background-color: green;

i'm new with css. i'm trying to make a navigation menu with sub items, but i think i'm missing something. the sub items are over lapping with the main items.
so the way i see it that the top list items are floated so are removed from the normal content flow. Which means i need to clear the float after so that the sub items display under the main items.
But its not working for me..Any ideas

You can set it using position, check updated snippet below
* {
padding: 0px;
margin: 0px;
}
body {
background-image: url("../images/background.jpeg");
}
#container {
width: 100%;
}
nav {}
#container nav ul {
list-style: none;
}
#container nav ul li {
float: left;
width: 100px;
color: white;
background-color: black;
text-align: center;
border-right: solid #fff 1px;
border-bottom: solid #fff 1px;
padding: 7px 5px;
opacity: 0.8;
position: relative;
}
#container nav ul li a {
color: white;
text-decoration: none;
display: block;
}
#container nav ul li ul li {
clear: both;
}
#container nav ul li ul {
position: absolute;
top: 100%;
display: none;
}
#container nav ul li:hover ul{
display:block;
}
<div id="container">
<nav>
<ul>
<li>Home</li>
<li>

<ul>
<li><a>Football News</a></li>

</ul>
</li>
<li>Contact</li>
<li>About us</li>
</ul>
</nav>
</div>
You can select only the first ul with direct children selector >, then it works.
#container nav > ul li {
float: left;
width: 100px;
height: 40px;
color: white;
background-color: black;
text-align: center;
border-right: solid #fff 1px;
border-bottom: solid #fff 1px;
line-height: 40px;
opacity: 0.8;
}

You don't have to always use ul elements to achieve that, you can use other elements too as seen below. Here there are 2 examples, one using div and one using select.
This examples demonstrates the basic functionality, but can be extended/enriched more. It is tested in linux only (iceweasel and chrome).

You don't have to always use ul elements to achieve that, you can use other elements too as seen below. Here there are 2 examples, one using div and one using select.
This examples demonstrates the basic functionality, but can be extended/enriched more. It is tested in linux only (iceweasel and chrome).
