Dropdown Menus

Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:
May 29.2008

Hi there,

I’m trying to integrate some SEO friendly dropdown menus into an existing website design.

The trouble I’m experiencing so far is that the body of the design is aligned centre, and most of the examples I’ve seen thus far use absolute positioning of <div> elements (i.e. the design is left-aligned, so the designer knows to position the dropdown div X pixels).

Is there a good reference I can use for positioning my divs properly?

Thanks

@toicontienMay 29.2008 — All you should need to do is relatively position the HTML tag that contains the menu.
[code=html]<ul id="nav" style="position: relative;">
<!-- menu items and drop down menus here -->
</ul>[/code]
If any HTML tag is positioned absolutely, and is inside the ul#nav tag, then that absolutely positioned element is positioned in reference to the ul#nav tag.
