Javascript mouseover mouseout menu - javascript

I'm trying to make this javascript menu work where, when I hover over AAA its submenu shows and on BBB its submenu shows.
It is implemented as a javascript which toggles the #subnav1 and #subnav2 css visibility where the two overlap one another.
However it seems only BBB mouseover works correctly, I suspect because the subnav2 is on top of the subnav1 however even messing with z-index doesn't solve the quirk..
Any idea?
Below is the code.. I left the css style so to make it look like a menu, hope it's not too long for an sscce

Horizontal scrolling UL with buttons and "width:auto" lists

As the title suggests, I am trying to create a horizontal scrollable <ul> with <li> with width:auto and with prev and next buttons, clearly with overflow:hidden.
Any suggestions on how to manage it with jquery?
This is the code that I have prepared...

You can simply use bxSlider without reinventing the wheel. To make your code work, you just need to add:
$(function () {
$('#nav').bxSlider({
pager: false,
minSlides: 3,
maxSlides: 3,
slideWidth: 150,
slideMargin: 25
});
});
#wrapper {
margin: auto;
}
.bx-viewport {
height: 50px !important;
padding: 0 30px;
box-sizing: border-box;
text-align: center;
}

JQUERY
$(function() {
$(window).scroll(function() {
/* I dont't know what I have to do */
});
});
click to see on codepen
I've solved it by doing this, it appears after you pass the bottom of .b and hides if not:
$(function() {
$(window).scroll(function() {
if($(window).scrollTop() > $(".b").offset().top+$(".b").height()){
$(".sticky").show();
}else{
$(".sticky").hide();
}
});
});
Suggested Solution:
Add this to your jquery code:
$(function() {
var targetOffset = $(".b").offset().top; //based on this div, the sticky element should appear
var $w = $(window).scroll(function(){
if ( $w.scrollTop() > targetOffset ) {
$(".sticky").show(); //show the sticky element
} else {
$(".sticky").hide();//hide the sticky element
}
});
});
Whenever I scroll page down to bottom of B element my sticky element must appear
If I scroll page up to top of my B element my sticky must be hidden
You need to check the scrollTop of the document to see how far you are from the top, then compare that to the scrollTop of the element you are scrolling to (to see if you have reached it)
The reason you should cache your selectors, like I have, is that the onScroll event triggers A LOT. So if you have $('ul.sticky').dosomethign inside of $.scroll(), you are A.) creating that jquery object, B.) querying the DOM C.) doing stuff. This can get rather expensive for performance. Typically if you are going to do an onScroll event handler, you should add a debounce or throttle to it to limit the number of times the handler function is called.
$(function() {
var $sticky = $('ul.sticky');
var bToTop = $('.b').scrollTop();
$(window).scroll(function() {
if($(document).scrollTop() > bToTop){
$sticky.show();
}
else {
$sticky.hide();
}
});
});

If you want to show the sticky only when you have reached the end of element b, you can do var bToTop = $('.b').height() + $('.b').scrollTop();
codepen
$(document).on("scroll", function() {
if ($(document).scrollTop() >= 600) {
$("ul").css({"display":"initial"});
}
if($(document).scrollTop() <=600) {
$("ul").css({"display":"none"});
}
});
This should be the proper and correct solution.
Just change the display: none to visibility: hidden;.
$(function() {
$(window).scroll(function() {
if ($(window).scrollTop() > $(".a").offset().top + $(".a").height()) {
$(".sticky").css({
"visibility": "visible"
});
} else {
$(".sticky").css({
"visibility": "hidden"
});
}
});

What technique do I use to get text into each individual tab?

I have been stuck on this for ages, here is my code so far:

text-align:center;
padding:10px 0;
}
#logo {
width:600px;
margin:0 auto;
padding:10px 0;
text-align:right;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<div id="navigation">
<ul>
<li><font color="white">Tab 1</li>
<li><font color="white">Tab 2</li>
<li><font color="white">Tab 3</li>
<li><font color="white">Tab 4</li>

$('#navigation ul a').removeClass('selected');
$(this).addClass('selected');
$('#content_changer').html('You have selected ' + $(this).html());
});
});
</script>
</body>
</html>
I can not figure out how to get one of these tabs menu thing to work, I have tried so many different methods but nothing will work.
It's not very good code, but it works for me. The only problem is that the #content text is set to font color white, so you can't see it, though it is there.
You should avoid font tags, as they are badly out of date, as well as inline JS.
I tried running your code. I found that the text is written #content_changer element, but its white colored.
Here's how you can solve it.
Add the following css rule
#content_changer{
color:#000;
}
Change the $(this).html() to $(this).text().
That much should do.
The problem is not in your JS, but in your CSS. Font color is white on the links in the navigation, which means it will be invisible on the content area. Also, using is deprecated and you need to set content-area color to black.
Here is a working jsFiddle:
http://jsfiddle.net/8ftyy/
Differences are these:
#content_changer {
color: black;
}
ul li a {
color: white;
}
and no font-color in html.

Creating a dropdown menu

I have a menu that contains a submenu which gets displayed below the main menu when a link inside the main menu is hovered over. What I want to do is add a second submenu inside the first submenu but make it a dropdown. I am not that great at css and I was wondering if anyone can help me with this. I haved followed some tutorials online and I was not able to get the results I was looking for. Here is the html and css I have so far.
<div id="navigation">
<ul id="mymenu">
<li>Home</li>
<li>Gallery</li>
<li>What We Do</li>
<li>Contact</li>
</ul>
</div>
<div id="sublinks">
<ul id="s1">
<li>General</li>
<li>Landon News</li>
<li>Trust Us</li>
</ul>
<ul id="s2">
<li>
Security Systems
<ul id="s2sys">
<li>Arlington HA</li>
<li>Enfield HA</li>
<li>Revere HA</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>
WLAN Systems
<ul id="s2wlan">
<li>Beverly HA</li>
<li>Holyoke HA</li>
<li>Meriden HA</li>
<li>Revere HA</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
<ul id="s3">
<li>Computers</li>
<li>Strategic Planning</li>
<li>Security Systems</li>
<li>WLAN, WiFi Broadband</li>
</ul>
<ul id="s4">
<li>Email</li>
<li>Address Info</li>
</ul>
</div>
Here is the javascript for the main menu which will display the first submenu
function showsubmenu(id){
submenu = document.getElementById('s'+id);
for(i=1;i<=4;i++){
if(i==id){
submenu.style.display="block";
} else {
document.getElementById('s'+i).style.display="none";
}
}
}
sfHover = function() {
var sfEls = document.getElementById("sublinks").getElementsByTagName("li");
for (var i=0; i<sfEls.length; i++) {
sfEls[i].onmouseover=function() {
this.className+=" hover";
}
sfEls[i].onmouseout=function() {
this.className=this.className.replace(new RegExp(" hover\\b"), "");
}
}
}
if (window.attachEvent) window.attachEvent("onload", sfHover);
Here is the CSS
#navigation{

}
#sublinks li li a:hover {
background-color: #8db3ff;
}
/* ----------- Hide Sub menu ----------- */
#s2, #s3, #s2sys, #s2wlan{display:none;}
What I am trying to do is make the second submenu a dropdown from the first submenu and at the moment it displays within the same line and not as a dropdown. How can I do this?
http://jsfiddle.net/kVztG/1/
To make the sub-sub-menu a dropdown change the css below.
#sublinks li:hover li {
display:block;
position:relative;
top:30px;
}
The position:relative and top:30px stop the dropdowns from appearing ontop of the sub-menu, and display:block stops the li from display inline.
Try adding this css to your drop down ul list that is within your sub-menu.
position: absolute;
top: 30px;
Depending on the type of result your looking for, you might want to amend the top value, or have the dropdown vertical by adding a width

Vertical sliding / toggle menu

I'd like to use the vertical sliding/toggle menu, please see my code below, at the moment the menu toggles only when you click on the + sign, please see the code below.
I'm trying to work out a way when you click on the category name eg Posts and the sub menu would open (same functionality with the +) and the page would go to Posts page. And when you click on the + sign, the function and the page stay the same.
How can I target this task? Your help / suggestion is appreciated.
Thank you!

This is code I have used to do exactly that, except I used arrow images instead of + and - but you should be able to modify it. Hope it helps!
Edit:
I've put the code below onto JSFiddle so you can try it out: http://jsfiddle.net/CrxAg/3/
HTML:
<div id="menu">
<div class="submenublock" id="submenu1"><h3>Category1</h3>
<ul>
<li>option1</li>
<li>option2</li>
</ul>
</div>
<div class="submenublock" id="submenu2"><h3>Category2</h3>
<ul>
<li>option1</li>
<li>option2</li>
</ul>
</div>
</div>
JS:
$(document).ready(function(){
$('div.submenublock > ul').hide();
$("div.submenublock > h3").css("background", "url(images/menuarrowdown.gif) no-repeat right bottom");
$('div.submenublock > h3').click(function() {
$(this).next().slideToggle('fast',function(){
//set arrow depending on whether menu is shown or hidden
if ($(this).is(':hidden')) {
$(this).prev().css("background", "url(images/menuarrowdown.gif) no-repeat right bottom");
} else {
$(this).prev().css("background", "url(images/menuarrowup.gif) no-repeat right bottom");
}
return false;
});
});
/* change appearance of h3 element on hover to make it look like a link */
$('div.submenublock > h3').hover(over, out);
function over(event) {
$(this).find("a").css("color", "#663");
$(this).css("cursor", "pointer");
}
function out(event) {
$(this).find("a").css("color", "");
$(this).css("cursor", "default");
}
/*end hover code*/
});
