[Pro] Dropline Menus

Hey guys,

Just wondering if it’s possible to make a dropline menu in Freeway? Where instead of a typical drop-down menu, the sub-menu would appear above the main menu in a horizontal line.

It would be awesome if this is possible with Pure CSS and with a nice fade too? Or even a sliding doors effect?

Cheers, Colm

It’s possible. One way would be using the show/hide effect method with two separate CSS menus. The other way would be doing the CSS styling the long hand way via the Editor with custom style settings on a single list.

There are some good examples of the long hand way available on CSSplay web site http://www.cssplay.co.uk/

Just look under the Menus section.

Thanks for the link, I got it working with that code. Just tweaked it all to suit my site.

Out of interest, can you elaborate more on your method please Chuckamuck? So far I have 4 graphic items, with a rollover effect applied to each. Above these graphics I have 4 HTML boxes which are shown and hidden by the rollovers.

The problem is, because the HTML boxe aren’t linked by a menu to the graphics, when I move the mouse off the graphic text, the HTML boxes hide again. What am I doing wrong?
