{DROPDOWN} space margin issue

Sevenupcan · Post by **Sevenupcan** » Sun 8. May 2005, 02:40

I can't seem to get rid of a big gap that lies just before my navigation. I thought it might have been becasue of the CSS, however i took out the CSS and still have the problem. So i believe it must be something to do with the phpWCMS side of it. However i don't know what could cause this.

Here is what i have at the moment. http://www.slogmeat.com/ You will be able to see the problem in any browser, however it might look a little screwed up in Internet Explorer you can still see it.

The space should be no bigger than the space for the gaps between each menu item. But as you can clearly see it is!

Any help would be great, thanks again.
Gavin

have you set:

Code: Select all

#pageMenu ul {
margin:0;
padding:0;
 }

?!?

btw.: what are you using the dropdown for ? I can't actually find any dropdown menus? Why don't you use NAV_LIST together with this tutorial to achieve this result (compatability test & demo)

Your right that bit of CSS did fix it, i must have been so asleep not to notice that. Thanks, i guess i was just so fed up with it, that my mind was ignoring what it could be. Also the fact that when it was in satic mode it didn't create this problem, and i litterally just copied over with out realising that in this script it names the <div> as pageMenu and not the <ul> so i had to insert the ul after pageMenu.

I'f you ment you cannot find any drop down menu's on my page, are you using Internet Explorer? If you ment you can't find any drop down menu replacenent tags then go to the following post...

Thanks for posting that tutorial I've decided i will use try that fast rollover technique on my menu.

Thanks-again for your help.

Yes I'm currently using Internet Explorer.

You may have noticed my forum signature, I'm one of the two creators of --...-- (dev forum for phpwcms), where all the hacks mods add-ons are listed. Therefore I think that I know about most of the hacks that are available

and furthermore I haven't found any dropdown navi on your page.

Hehe, I'm sorry i didn't mean to make you feel like i was patronising you. Well there is a drop down menu there, try using Firefox and you will see it. Or just look at the html code and you will see that there are list items that aren't visible in Internet Explorer. The reason is because I just haven't included the code to make the :hover function work for IE users.
