Hi everyone,
I was wondering if anybody might be able to help me. I've been fiddling round with a script i found for a navigation bar. One javascript file allows rollover images tobe faded in on the navigation bar, and the other allows a drop-down menu to be viewed when one of the buttons is clicked.
This drop-down menu is causng me problems. In my HTML page, everything is held within a layer called 'content', which keeps everything in the right place relative to each other but allows the whole lot to be centred in the browser. The drop-down menu, however, seems to appear wherever it likes, with its position changing according to how wide the browser window is sized.
I need to have the menu open directly under the 'portfolio' button, but I just don't seem to be able to give the drop-down menu an absolute position within the content box. Can anyone help? I'm not sure if it's the CSS setup within the HTML file or the Javascript code in 'vbulletin_menu' that's the problem.

if anyone's interested.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
PaulDrop-down menus are DHTML... or at least I think so. You could try posting in that section.I have some problems with absolute positioning too. I learned how to make the padding of the divs, works fine in ff, ie and opera, but how do I center a div (vertically) to the middle of the page?
or at least how do I center the entire page vertically? I don't want to use paragraphs for that...style="align: center"I want to align it VERTICALLY.
I found a script involving two DIVs that centers something vertically but it's a little harder in my case.
My page is something like this:
+---------------------------+
| Text1 |
| Picture Text2 |
| Text3 |
+---------------------------+
I want to align both the text and the picture vertically. The text's height may differ so I can't use any padding.
Any ideas?vertical-align:middle;I'm not that beginner... it won't work for the div.I've just discovered that myself, I even tried positioning it via percentages(50%) and adding a negative top margin, but float left breaks it out of the div!
I'm out of ideas, unless you plann on using a dreaded table...That's what I started from...and I don't want to use any more tables or <font> tags. I found a code for centering:
<head>
<style>
body, html {height: 100%;}
* html #tbl {position: absolute; top: 50%;}
#tbl[id] {display: table; height: 100%;}
* html #cell {position: relative; top: -50%;}
#cell[id] {display: table-cell; vertical-align: middle;}
</style>
</head><body>
<div id="tbl">
<div id="cell">
centered text
</div>
</div>
</body>
