Horizontal menu drop down action problem

Horizontal menu drop down action problem 1 Year, 7 Months ago Karma: 0
Hi
I have one small problem with my horizontal top menu. I can hover over any top menu item and the hover action seems to work fine (menu item changes color as it should). However, when I bring the mouse down to pull open the sub-menu, this only works when I bring the mouse down from the left portion of the menu item. No sub-menu appears (and the top menu item de-selects) when I bring the mouse down from the right side of the top menu item. It is as if the active area of the top menu item for purposes of initiating the sub-menu action is only about half of the top menu item.

I have the following code in the CSS configuration for the module:

/* used to get sub-menus to be on top */
.yuimenu
{
z-index: 100 !important;
}

Unfortunately, I don't have the website on-line yet for you to have a look at it.
Can you tell me what CSS items control this active area for initiating the sub-menu to appear? I would be happy to play with these controls if I haven't given you enough information to suggest a specific fix.

Thanks very much for your help.

Problem solved!
After looking more carefully, I found this same problem described in a post from 2 months ago titled "Menu item highlighted when mouse not over it". The problem I was having was actually a 2nd problem described in this post. Just as described in this post, the sub-menu was disappearing for the primary menu items on the right side of the horizontal menu. I tried the code you suggested in your reply and this fixed the problem I was having.

This is a nice module - thanks very much for providing it!
I have a more general comment ... in going through the forum items in detail, it seems like most of the issues being raised are related to how to achieve various effects in the css code. I like your idea of providing a module-specific area for adding css code. However, I wonder if there is some way to systematically capture all the tips & tricks found in all these forum posts into one document or FAQ area. I recognize that in some cases, your css code tips are specific to the rest of the poster's css environment. However, in many cases, your code suggestions would seem to work for most cases.

Thanks again for all your work.

Hello,

Thanks for your suggestion. Usually most of the problems associated with site template CSS styles. We'll try to create a F.A.Q. for most common problems.

Regards,
ARI Soft
