The blue isn’t working on click properly because you are actually needing to put the :focus pseudo class onto it.
Are you more or less trying to get this blue CSS dropdown to perform on click? Your code will need a bit of work but I’ll await your response so I don’t waste any of my time .
Hi Ryan, many thanks for taking the time to try the code.
I just tried the blue button on the Android tablet and discovered it does not work but it does work on the desktop. I would like the blue button to work on the Android tablet.
May I ask what platform you are using to test the code?
If you are asking whether ti will break any - I think it will be safe.
It’s certainly not the standard way of doing dropdowns though (I assume you realize this?)
Not saying your way is bad or anything. The hover works and there doesn’t appear to be any issues (I’d double check mobile devices since they seem to have issues with hover menus though.)
I already have a menu (with bloated CSS) which uses a “Hamburger” to display the menu then another click is necessary to make a selection.
I know using the RED button is “not the standard way of doing dropdowns” but neither is any new feature. It is very effective and intuitive on mobile systems with limited real-estate.
The Red button hover works fine on the Nexus 7 tablet and the Moto G mobile.
I am curious to know if the RED button works ok on IOS platforms and other mobile platforms.
Red Menu
IOS - iPhone(all versions). The menu can be touched open but does not close. As said before this is due to mobiles not liking “hover”.
I’m actually just going to stop there since this alone is reason enough to not use this menu everywhere. If you have the hamburger menu then yes go for it.
Generally you will want to stay with click menus on mobile devices (that’s why hamburger is so great and widely used.) Do let me know if you find anything pertaining to your problems though. Always love learning .
I’m not sure whether you are going for innovative and brand-new but here is a CSS only clickable menu example that’s quite nice - http://jsfiddle.net/Cerebrl/uhykY/ . Has a kink or two but generally it’s good.
Please supply further details of your browserstack or a free online IOS testing application. (I did search and the results all seem to require a payment).
I noticed that :hover is used - does that work OK in IOS?
off topic
I prefer the horizontal hover method because I find it has less clicks and easier to read left to right rather than the Chinese top to bottom
