I am just wondering how to make a dropdown menu with another dropdown inside of it, so for instance:
Dropdown Title
Title 1
Title 2
Item 1
Item 2
Item 3
Title 3
I have made a single dropdown menu so far:
<li class="dropdown">
<a class="dropbtn">Novel</a>
<div class="dropdown-content">
<a class="dropbtn"><h3>Volume 1</h3></a>
<a href="index1.html">Chapter 1</a>
<a href="index2.html">Chapter 2</a>
<a href="index3.html">Chapter 3</a>
<a href="index4.html">Chapter 4</a>
<a href="index5.html">Chapter 5</a>
<a href="index6.html">Chapter 6</a>
</div>
</li>
I have literally no idea how to make the second dropdown menu - which will come from the "Volume 1" h3. I also think it will be best to keep it in the vertical orientation. Thanks in advance.
Use Bootstrap class as it will gives you option for multilevel drop-down
See this link for help
I don't know if this is still relevant but here is what I did with plain CSS.
To avoid the main dropdown to hide when hovering over the second dropdown you want to make sure to use a div for the main dropdown and inside it a second div for the inside dropdown as show.
HTML
<!-- ****** NavBar ****** -->
<div class="navbar">
<a href="#home">Home</a>
<a href="#news">News</a>
<div class="dropdown">
<div class="dropbtn">Dropdown</div>
<!-- Main Dropdown -->
<div class="dropdown-one">
<div id="link1" class="dItem" href="#">Link 1
<!-- Inside Dropdown -->
<div class="dropdown-two">
<div class="dItem" id="file" href="#">Import</div>
</div>
</div>
<div class="dItem" href="#">Link 2</div>
<div class="dItem" href="#">Link 3</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
CSS
.navbar {
position: sticky;
height: 46px;
background-color: #1b1b1b;
}
.navbar a {
float: left;
font-size: 16px;
color: white;
text-align: center;
padding: 14px 16px;
text-decoration: none;
}
.dropdown {
float: left;
position: relative;
}
.dropdown .dropbtn {
font-size: 16px;
border: none;
outline: none;
color: white;
padding: 14px 16px;
background-color: inherit;
font-family: inherit;
margin: 0;
}
.navbar a:hover, .dropdown:hover .dropbtn {
background-color: red;
}
.dropdown-one {
cursor: pointer;
display: none;
position: absolute;
background-color: #f9f9f9;
min-width: 160px;
box-shadow: 0px 8px 16px 0px rgba(0,0,0,0.2);
}
.dropdown-two {
cursor: pointer;
display: none;
position: absolute;
left: 160px;
top: 0px;
min-width: 160px;
background-color: #f9f9f9;
box-shadow: 0px 8px 16px 0px rgba(0,0,0,0.2);
}
.dropdown:hover .dropdown-one, #link1:hover > .dropdown-two {
display: block;
}
.dropdown-one .dItem {
color: black;
padding: 12px 16px;
display: block;
text-align: left;
}
.dropdown-one .dItem:hover, .dropdown-two a:hover {
background-color: #ddd;
