I have created a horizontal menu with a horizontal submenu. Though I want all the submenus to be pushed to the left, just like the first submenu. How can I do that? I'm very (very) new to CSS.
I have this HTML code:
<div id="menu">
<ul>
<li>Link 1
<ul>
<li>Link 1-1</li>
<li>Link 1-2</li>
<li>Link 1-3</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>Link 2
<ul>
<li>Link 2-1</li>
<li>Link 2-2</li>
<li>Link 2-3</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>Link 3
<ul>
<li>Link 3-1</li>
<li>Link 3-2</li>
<li>Link 3-3</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
</div>
And I have this CSS code:
#menu{
padding:0;
margin:0;
overflow:hidden;
height:60px;
}
#menu ul{
padding:0;
margin:0;
}
#menu li{
position: relative;
float: left;
list-style: none;
margin: 0;
padding:0;
}
#menu li a{
width:100px;
height: 30px;
display: block;
text-decoration:none;
text-align: center;
line-height: 30px;
background-color: black;
color: white;
}
#menu li a:hover{
background-color: red;
}
#menu ul ul{
position: absolute;
top: 30px;
visibility: hidden;
width: 600px;
}
#menu ul li:hover ul{
visibility:visible;
display: inline;
}
Remove position: relative from #menu li and add it to #menu ul instead. Also add left: 0 to #menu ul ul:
#menu ul{
padding:0;
margin:0;
position: relative; /* add this */
}
#menu li{
/* position: relative; //remove this */
float: left;
list-style: none;
margin: 0;
padding:0;
}
#menu ul ul{
position: absolute;
left: 0; /* add this */
top: 30px;
visibility: hidden;
width: 600px;
}
Working example: http://jsfiddle.net/WJN4G/
move the positioning from #menu li to #menu ul and add left:0; to #menu ul ul
The left:0; causes the element (#menu ul ul) to be aligned with it's first parent having a position other then static (which is the default). That's why you need to move the position:relative on element up to the #menu ul, so all the child ul align to the left edge of the parent ul.
#menu ul{
padding:0;
margin:0;
position: relative; /* <- moved */
}
#menu li{
position: relative; /* <- deleted */
float: left;
list-style: none;
margin: 0;
padding:0;
}
#menu ul ul{
position: absolute;
left:0; /* <- added */
top: 30px;
visibility: hidden;
width: 600px;
}
here is your modified fiddle

I am trying to create a dropdown menu with CSS. When I hover on menu item, it doesn't work as expected. It does not show any categories below that item, I don't know why.
I do not want to use JavaScript, I want to use only pure css.

You'll need to place sub-menus inside the hovering elements, so that they are their child elements and then simply use class to target them. Here try this.
.hasSub:hover .sub-menu{
display: block !important;
}
.hasSub1:hover .sub-menu1{
display: block !important;
}
*{
margin:0px;
padding:0px;
}
#container ul{
list-style:none;
}
#container ul li{
background-color:#3c3e94;
width:150px;
border:1px solid white;
height:50px;
line-height: :50px;
text-align:center;
float:left;
color:white;
font-size:18px;
position:relative;
}
#container ul ul{
display:none;
}
#container ul li:hover{
background-color:#388222;
}
#container ul ul ul{
transform:translateX(100%);
top:0px;
position:absolute;
}
h4{
position:absolute;
top:50%;
left:50%;
transform:translate(-50%,-50%);
}
.hasSub:hover .sub-menu{
display: block !important;
}
.hasSub1:hover .sub-menu1{
display: block !important;
}
<div id="container">
<ul>
<li><h4>Home</h4></li>
<li><h4>About</h4></li>
<li class="hasSub"><h4>Entertainment</h4>
<ul class="sub-menu">
<li><h4>Hollywood</h4></li>
<li class="hasSub1"><h4>Jollywood</h4>
<ul class="sub-menu1">

Use this code , and change it menu with dropDown

You need to nest your <ul> tags within each <li> element. Semantically, sub items should be children to their parents.
.nav { /* style nav bar */
display: flex;
color: #fff;
list-style: none;
padding: 0;
}
.nav li { /* style ALL li tags */
position: relative;
padding: 12px;
background-color: #333;
}
.nav li > ul { /* hide all ul tags at first */
display: none;
list-style: none;
padding: 0;
position: absolute;
z-index: 1;
}
.nav li:hover > ul { /* show ul tags when parent li is hovering */
display: block;
}
.nav li > ul > li > ul { /* move 3rd layer ul to the right */
left: 100%;
top: 0;
}
<ul class="nav">
<li>Home</li>
<li>About</li>
<li>Entertainment
<ul>

I've got 5 li on my page.
One of theme (the third) is higher than the other. I would like them to horizontally align to the center of this biggest LI. However, it's aligning on the top of it.
I've tried to use "Vertical-align: middle" but it doesn't work.
Here is my actual code:
<link rel="stylesheet" href="style2015.css" />
<div id="menu">
<ul>
<li>Portfolio
<ul>
<li>Sous-item 1</li>
<li>Sous-item 2</li>

</ul>

If i got your question correct, then this is what you need to do. I have just made the required changes, rest of code is all yours.
I have a three-level navigation, the third level (sub-submenu) displays when hover on the second one (submenu).
The sub-submenu appears relative to the parent item. But I want it to appear simply next to the submenu, so always on the same place, regardless which submenu-item gets hovered. So the first item of the sub-submenu (e.g. "Second-One") is always on the same height as the first item of the submenu ("First")
Here is a JSFiddle for my actual status: http://jsfiddle.net/fc0rwbqu/
Thanks in advance!
Code:
<ul id="nav">
<li>Home</li>
<li>Numbers
<ul>
<li>First
<ul>
<li>First-One</li>
<li>First-Two</li>
<li>First-Three</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>Second
<ul>
<li>Second-One</li>
<li>Second-Two</li>
<li>Second-Three</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>Third
<ul>
<li>Third-One</li>
<li>Third-Two</li>
<li>Third-Three</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
</li>
CSS:
#nav {
position: relative}
#nav li a,#nav li { float:left;
margin-left: 20px;
background-color: #ddd;}
#nav li {
list-style:none;
position:relative;}
#nav li ul {
display:none;
position:absolute;
left:0; width: 100px;
top:90%;
padding:0;
margin:0;}
#nav li:hover > ul {
display:block;}
#nav li ul li {
float:none;
height: 35px;
min-width: 100px;
line-height: 35px;
border-right: 0;
display:block;}
#nav li ul li ul {
display:none; margin: 0 0 0 10px;
width: 100px; z-index:9999;
float: left !important; overflow: display;
background-color: #f06;}
#nav li ul li:hover ul {
left: 100px;
top:0;}
Something like this?? http://jsfiddle.net/fc0rwbqu/1/
Appled position: relative to ul tag.
I am trying to make a vertical menu, but everytime when i show the sub menu on hover, it expands the previous element, making a 'bigger box'. I have no idea how to style that.
Dont want to use some jquery plugin if there is an css solution. I have also bootstrap3, but there is no support for nested dropdowns, dropdowns inside dropdowns ... the nested ones did not open...

}
To get the nested menu work make all the li items position:relative and make the ul displayed on hover as position:absolute.

Fixed. I think this is what you want http://dabblet.com/gist/2792978
Simply remove position: relative from #nav li and give it to #nav.
