Smooth Navigational Menu (v1.4)

[Ronnyjaymes]

1) Script Title: Smooth Navigational Menu (v1.4)

2) Script URL (on DD): http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamicindex1/ddsmoothmenu.htm

3) Describe problem: I posted a problem I had earlier, and I have managed to come up with a couple of work arounds, somehow. At the moment I need to somehow differentiate the colour of the main menu text and the sub menu text.

I am inserting the code into Goldfish, if that's any help.

Any help would be very gratefully received!


.ddsmoothmenu{
font: normal 14px Calibri;
background: transparent; /*background of menu bar (default state)*/
color: black;
width: 75%;
text-decoration: none;
}

.ddsmoothmenu ul{
z-index:100;
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
list-style-type: none;
}

/*Top level list items*/
.ddsmoothmenu ul li{
position: relative;
display: inline;
float: left;
}

/*Top level menu link items style*/
.ddsmoothmenu ul li a{
display: block;
background: Transparent; /*background of menu items (default state)*/
color: white;
padding: 8px 10px;
border-right: 0px solid #000000;
color: white;
text-decoration: none;
}

* html .ddsmoothmenu ul li a{ /*IE6 hack to get sub menu links to behave correctly*/
display: center-block;
}

.ddsmoothmenu ul li a:link, .ddsmoothmenu ul li a:visited{
color: bold, white;
font: normal 13px Calibri;
}

.ddsmoothmenu ul li a.selected{ /*CSS class that's dynamically added to the currently active menu items' LI A element*/
background: black;
color: white;
font: normal 13px Calibri;
}

.ddsmoothmenu ul li a:hover{
background: black; /*background of menu items during onmouseover (hover state)*/
color: white;
font: bold 13px Calibri;
}

/*1st sub level menu*/
.ddsmoothmenu ul li ul{
display: block;
background: white;
position: absolute;
left: 0;
display: none; /*collapse all sub menus to begin with*/
visibility: hidden;
}

/*Sub level menu list items (undo style from Top level List Items)*/
.ddsmoothmenu ul li ul li{
display: list-item;
background: #000000;
color: bold, white
float: none;
}

/*All subsequent sub menu levels vertical offset after 1st level sub menu */
.ddsmoothmenu ul li ul li ul{
top: 0;
}

/* Sub level menu links style */
.ddsmoothmenu ul li ul li a{
font: normal 13px Calibri;
width: 160px; /*width of sub menus*/
padding: 5px;
margin: 0;
border-top-width: 0;
border-bottom: 1px solid gray;
}

/* Holly Hack for IE \*/
* html .ddsmoothmenu{height: 1%;} /*Holly Hack for IE7 and below*/
}

You should be able to give your sub menu links a different color by targeting the CSS rule:


.ddsmoothmenu ul li ul li a{

}

Using the default ddsmoothmenu.css file as an example, the new addition in red would give the sub menu links a color of yellow:


/* Sub level menu links style */
.ddsmoothmenu ul li ul li a{
font: normal 13px Verdana;
width: 160px; /*width of sub menus*/
padding: 5px;
margin: 0;
border-top-width: 0;
border-bottom: 1px solid gray;
color: yellow !important;
}
