In my website, I am trying to get the rollover effects working.
Currently, on no mouse hover, the ul li item is displayed as text but on mouse hover, it has a rollover effect to show the image.
Instead of having text in the normal mouse non-hover state, I want to have images.
That means, mouse hover and non-mouse hover are both different images, and there's no text
I wanted to ask how do I get such a rollover effect working, in contrast to what I have currently. (non-mouse hover is text which I want to to change to images as well)
Here is the jsfiddle of how I currently have rollovers: http://jsfiddle.net/PF35v/7/
You have all of the images hidden by default so when you put an image inside the a tag, it is also hidden.
ul#nav li a img { display: block; }
This will make the images in links always visible but the others hidden by default. I think that's what you're asking for.
Here's two different approaches, I'm sure there are others:
HTML-Centric
<ul id="nav">
<li>
<a href="#">
<span>My Text</span>
<img src="http://goo.gl/tYsDU"/>
<img class="hover" src="http://goo.gl/UohAz"/>
</a>
</li>
...
</ul>
#nav,
#nav li {
list-style-type: none;
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
}
#nav li a img {
display: inline;
}
#nav li a img.hover,
#nav li a span {
display: none;
}
#nav li a:hover img {
display: none;
}
#nav li a:hover img.hover {
display: inline;
}

<ul id="nav">
<li>
</li>
...
</ul>
#nav,
#nav li {
list-style-type: none;
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
}
#nav li {
width: 128px;
height: 128px;
background-image: url(http://goo.gl/tYsDU);

#nav li a {
display: block;
width: 128px;

padding: 0;
}
#nav li a:hover {
background-image: url(http://goo.gl/UohAz);
}

The first is probably the "best" from a flexibility standpoint; you don't have to hard-bake the dimensions in like you do the second. However, if they're unchanging, perhaps the second is preferable for your approach, it just takes targeting each li and a specifically, which can prove a little brittle.

I'm trying to figure out with my drop-down list within my nav is not displaying. I
am also trying to understand how to i would render the drop-down list as a class and how it would be specified in the CSS to not get it confused with any of my of unordered lists. Can someone please help and possibly add a class to the dropdown list so i know how to display it?
Here is my code in Jfiddle:
https://jsfiddle.net/CheckLife/rzxxb2kb/4/
In your css you have:
/*Dropdown Nav */
ul li ul li {
display: none;
}
ul li:hover ul li {
display: block;
position: absolute;
}
The problem here is that you're setting each individual "li" element to display none, so you're hiding each individual list item. If you show/hide the whole unordered list, then your elements will appear. Additionally, you probably want to remove position:absolute so that they stack vertically
/*Dropdown Nav */
ul li ul {
display: none;
}
ul li:hover ul {
display: block;
}
EDIT:
In order to address the issue of the list pushing all content down, I recommend not using an ul. Instead you could put each a tag in a div and do the following:
HTML:
<li onmouseover="newText()">Players
<div class="dropdown-content">
Link 1
Link 2
Link 3
</div>
</li>
CSS:
.dropdown-content {
display: none;
position: absolute;
// The below was copied from your other css
background-color: #3b63d3;
width: 90px;
text-align: center;
border-right: 1px groove #141e38;
}
li:hover .dropdown-content {
display: block;
}
https://jsfiddle.net/rzxxb2kb/5/
Its the position: absolute; on ul li:hover ul li change it to position: relative;
/*Dropdown Nav */
ul li ul li{
display: none;
}
ul li:hover ul li {
display: block;
position: relative;
}
.clear {
clear: both;
}

When user clicks on my drop-down menu, it jumps the page back to the very top (like a page reload).
See this jsFiddle with stripped down code.
I know that if I remove the # in href="#", it should work, but that is not good practice.
How do I make it so it doesn't jump the page to top?
HTML:
<div class="nav">
<ul>
<li>
Drop
<ul class="nav-user nav-li-cont">
<li> Hello
</li>
<li> World
</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
</div>
CSS:
div.nav {
display: inline-block;
margin-left:50px;
}
div.nav ul {
padding: 0;
margin: 0;
list-style-type: none;
position: relative;
}
div.nav ul li {
float:left;
}
div.nav ul li a {
text-decoration: none;
}
div.nav ul li ul {
display:none;
}
div.nav ul li:hover ul {
display: list-item;
position: absolute;
}
div.nav ul li:hover ul li {
float:none;
}
div.nav ul li ul li:hover {
float:none;
}
div.nav ul li ul li a {
text-decoration: none;
cursor: pointer;
float:left;
width:100%;
}
.nav-li-cont {
border-radius: 4px;
float: left !important;
padding: 10px !important;
}
That's because there's no js/jquery assigned to that link. And the browser will assume that this is a "link for a new page", and actually if you check the URL of the website, it's propably changed to this after you click on that button (you can't see this on jsfiddle): example.com/currentPage/#.
If you change this line
Drop
to this instead
Drop
it will not jump to the top anymore. The void operator is often used merely to obtain the undefined primitive value (which is equivalent to “void 0”). In these cases, the global variable undefined can be used instead (assuming it has not been assigned to a non-default value).

Update
If you have multiple links using href="#" you can either exchange the links as I mentioned above to this href="javascript:void(0)" or you can add a class called noclick for example for every link that has href="#" and add the following:
$(".noClick").attr('href','javascript:void(0)');

I'm trying to center a horizontal list of image links, though it seems that the left of the images are being centered. As you can see, the center of the list of images (which are all the same size) is slightly to the right of the text.
HTML:
<div id='nav'>
<ul>
<li>
<a href=''><img src='images/login.png' /></a>
</li>
<li>
<a href=''><img src='images/add.png' /></a>
</li>
<li>
<a href=''><img src='images/forum.png' /></a>
</li>
</ul>
</div>
Css:
#nav {
text-align: center;
}
#nav ul {
list-style: none;
margin: 20px auto;
}
#nav li {
display: inline-block;
margin: 0px 30px;
}
What can I do to completely center it?
Working Demo : http://jsfiddle.net/3d6TS/
The <ul> tag by default adds padding. You need to set padding:0 manually to <ul> tag.
#nav ul {
list-style: none;
margin: 20px auto;
padding:0;
}
#nav { text-align: center; }
#nav ul { list-style: none; }
#nav ul li { display: inline; }
the solution is the display:inline on the li
A good solution would be to maintain the margin-left and make sure the first child has a left margin of 0. This causes both the first and last children to have no margins on the edges it meets with the parent. This is good as :first-child doesn't catastrophically break styles in >=ie7 where as :last-child is unsupported in <=ie8 making the reverse of this infeasible for the time being.
#nav ul li {
display: inline-block;
margin-left:30px;
}
#nav ul li:first-child {
margin-left:0;
}
I have this HTML code:
<nav id="menu">
<ul>
<li>
Item1
Item1
</li>
<li>
Item2
Item2
</li>
</ul>
</nav>
Demo page
As you can notice, it's a menu with 2 links for each item. The menu is horizontal, and the aim is to hide the "alt" link when the item is not hovered and to show it when it is hovered.
Each <li> element is therefore a box with a specific height (34px) and each link has a height of 34px as well, so that the "alt" link is below the main link, and is hidden.
When the item is hovered, a negative top margin of 34px is applied to the main link, making the "alt" one appear.
But when "hovering out" the top margin of 0 is not really applied back by Google Chrome as you can notice on the demo page I made. Just hover several times on the links and you will notice that elements are not put back to their correct positions.
How can I solve that? I need to keep 2 links (main and "alt") for more complex reasons, the demo being simplified.
For your information, here is the CSS:
nav#menu {
background-color: #e9e9e9;
}
nav#menu > ul {
margin: 0;
height: 39px;
display: block;
list-style-type: none;
}
nav#menu > ul > li {
display: inline-block;
height: 34px;
overflow: hidden;
width: 200px;
}
nav#menu > ul > li > a {
display: block;
height: 34px;
line-height: 34px;
}
nav#menu > ul > li > a:first-child {
margin-top: 0;
}
nav#menu > ul > li:hover > a:first-child {
margin-top: -34px;
}
nav#menu > ul > li > a.alt {
color: white;
background-color: #8d8d8d;
}
Sorry for all the comments. I was trying to get it to work and just thinking out loud. Here is the solution you are looking for...
You need to change two of the styles.
/* add the overflow: hidden; to the end of this tag set */
nav#menu > ul { .... overflow: hidden; }
/* replace the inline-block with float:left;*/
nav#menu > ul > li { float:left; height: 34px; overflow: hidden; width: 200px; }
Here is the working link jsFiddle
I am using the following (simplified) code to vertically center a hyperlink within a UL. I know it may appear strange that I am applying the style to the hyperink rather than the li, but I require the entire list element to be clickable.
My code works just as intended, however as you can see on this jsFiddle the vertical centering is a little off.
Can anyone advise why this is? Thanks in advance.
HTML
<ul>
<li>
<a href="/">
<label>Foo</label>
<span>Bar</span>
</a>
</li>
</ul>
CSS
ul
{
list-style: none;
}
ul
{
height: 100px;
line-height: 100px;
}
li, li a
{
display: inline-block;
}
li a
{
line-height: 18px;
padding: 5px 10px;
color: #FFF;
text-decoration: none;
}
li label
{
float: left;
}
li span
{
float: right;
}
The line-height on your "ul" is whats moving the link up and down, if you increase it to about 120px it centers it.
Get rid of display:inline-block; on li a.
