CSS MENUS › A CSS only flyout menu with 'click' action

Date : 14th March 2011

For all modern browsers

This demo is too wide for your mobile screen.
Please view on a tablet or PC.

Information

Tested and working in IE7, IE8, IE9, Firefox, Safari, Chrome and Opera.

To complete the set this is a flyout menu that uses click actions to show the dropline.

The above menu, which is just a simple set of nested unordered lists, requires that you click on any of the top level items with arrows to open the flyout sub menus. The flyouts will be held open until you either click another list item with an arrow, click anywhere off the menu or, if you are more than one sub menu deep, moving the mouse off the menu.

I have also added CSS3 styling to give corner radii and reflections for browsers that support these styles. Safari and Chrome will see all these styles.

As explained in the previous menu, Internet Explorer is very buggy when it comes to the support for :active/:focus with the adjacent sibling selector and in this menu I have found an answer that uses just one line of javascript which does nothing except force a refresh of the menu. I am still searching for a CSS only trigger to force Internet Explorer to refresh the display when using :active with the adjacent sibling selector. At the moment Internet Expleorer only refreshes the display when moving the mouse off the :active link.
