Hope everyone had a great Christmas and here’s to a great 2013. Incidentally have you noticed that if you add up all the digits in 2013 they come to 6. Wonder what else with that digit may hopefully be appearing soon?
Anyway I digress.
I have probably been rather ambitious but I have tried to create my first inline website at http://www.DMofT.co.uk with the help of many posts in the FreewayTalk archive.
I’ve also had to play with z-index quite a lot to make sure the menu is always above all the text/photos, especially in various incarnations of Internet Exploder.
However I am struggling with the CSS menu action and so far haven’t found any reference to a workable solution.
To add a CSS menu I have created a container called ‘cssmenuholder’ into which I have placed ‘cssmenu’, the CSS Menu action instance.
To make sure the CSS menu background extends the full width of the central area, and is the same height as the menu section, I have set the background of ‘cssmenuholder’ to EE9289. However despite the fact ‘cssmenuholder’ contains ‘cssmenu’ the parent’s height will not grow to match the size of the CSS menu event though it is set to ‘oveflow visible’.
It’s almost as if the CSS menu ‘floats above’ the container and the parent doesn’t know what height it is.
I’ve put together three examples at http://www.dmoft.co.uk/test.html including one ‘fix’ a I found in the archive but that turns the CSS menu into a table which I’m trying to avoid.
Hopefully I’ve just overlooked something simple to get this to work as it all seemed to simple when I started out…
Thanks
Gordon
