drop down menu 'on state..'

[claytonbrown]

alright, so first of I am not extremely knowledgeable in CSS or JavaScript for that matter and apologize in advance if this question pertains more to JS then CSS. I also am sure I am about to slaughter some terminology, but here goes:

The site in question is ShawnTrautman.com.

We recently implemented the uber menu script and love it. There is just one issue: When you hover the main button that then releases the drop down the button shows its hover state, which for now is underlined text and a slightly darker BG, however, once you move your mouse down to the drop down options the hover state falls off... we want to go with a much more contrasting hover state, but it looks bad when it turns off upon mouse off...

Ultimately we want the hover state of the main button to remain active while the mouse is over any of the options in the drop down.

Any ideas on how to fix/create the intended effect would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance

This is a javascript issue. I've moved it to the JavaScript forum.

The menu you're using appears to be from javascriptkit.com - have you looked at the instructions (http://www.javascriptkit.com/script/script2/jkmegamenu.shtml) or asked for help there?

When do you see this problem? Is it only in certain browsers? Do you see the same problem on javascriptkit's demo page?
Nevermind, I caught what you meant. I'm not sure - since the menu is not actually a child of the menu anchor, you'd have to resort to adding/removing a class with the proper background color when the menu is open. I'll look into it when I have a chance, but if anyone else has an idea, please, go ahead.

Why not switch to DD Mega Menu:

It already does that.

Cristofer Lamber,

Per favore scrivere un nuovo conversazione per parlare di una nuova domanda. É qui:

Si parla solamente l'inglese qui, mai se hai bisogno di aiuto, parlo un po' d'italiano. Favore di scrivere in italiano e inglese per darni piú informazione. (E scusi il mio italiano-- non lo he usato molto per cinque anni.)
