I'm trying to make a menu work so that the menu remains in hover state when it's submenu/child menu is selected:
see example here: http://cssdesk.com/5vJP6
If anyone could explain what needs to be added to the CSS to make this work that would be great. I don't want to use any external javascript to make this happen!
I've had a look at a couple of similar questions here, but none of their answers worked for me
thanks
I added this:
#menuh ul li:hover a {color: black !important; border-bottom: 1px dashed #C1D9F0 !important; }
#menuh ul li:hover li a {color: #505050 !important;}
#menuh ul li:hover li a:hover {color: #297BB6 !important; }
Which resolved my problem :-)
Define the :hover
on the li
element instead of the link, for example:
#menuh li:hover A
{
}
(Dito for all a:hover
s)
However this won't work in IE6. You'll need to have to JavaScript solution there.
This was super helpful! Here's what I ended up using to make sure the background and font color of my main nav didn't override the sub nav
#nav ul li:hover a {background-color: #353535; color: #A98C0C;}
#nav ul li:hover li a {background:none; color: #aaa; }
#nav ul li:hover li a:hover {background:none; color: #fff; }
