html5 nav tags and submenus

Is there anyway to create submenus under html5 <nav> tags? I have a very simple navigation right now, Id like to add a few additional submenus. I have done this before using <ul> and <li> tags, but I really wanted to try to do something very html5 and css3 driven. Is it possible to do this combining all three types of tags? Any advice would be appreciated.

PS- I haven’t been on this site in awhile. I know I am probably posting wrong. Also, can anyone tell me where I can find my old posts? I know someone gave me some info on the correct way to post once, but I can’t locate any of my history.

Heres the HTML:

<!doctype html>
<html>
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8">
<title>Developmental Writing</title>
<link href="css/master_writing.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
<meta name="description" content="Austin Community College Developmental Writing Instructor Resources">
<meta name="keywords" content="teacher, faculty, instructor, resources, teaching, teaching guides">
<meta name="robots" content="index,follow">
<script>
  'article aside footer header nav section time'.replace(/\\w+/g,function(n){document.createElement(n)})
</script>

<!--[if IE ]>
  <link href="css/iecss.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css">
<![endif]-->

</head>

<body>
    


<div id="wrapper">
  <div id="content">
  
  <div id="header"></div><!--end header-->

<nav>
<a href="index.html">Home Page</a>
<a href="eBook.html">eBook Learning</a>
<a href="Course Options.html">Course Info</a>
<a href="faculty.html">Meet the Faculty</a>
<a href="instructor_resources.html">Instructor Resources</a>
<a href="#">Lorem Ipsum</a>
</nav>


CSS: 

nav{
display: table;
background-color:#dfdddd;
width: 100%;
table-layout: fixed;
}

nav a{
display:table-cell;
padding: 7px 0;
color: #000;
text-align:center;
-webkit-transition:all .2s linear;
-moz-transition:all .2s linear;
-ms-transition:all .2s linear;
-o-transition:all .2s linear;
text-decoration:none;

}

nav a:hover{
color: #FFF ;
background-color: #007AC3;
}

Sure. The general practice is just to wrap a <nav> element around the standard UL structure. This is certainly the best approach if you are including submenus.

can anyone tell me where I can find my old posts?

Lots of ways:

  • Click on your username (to the left of your post) and choose ‘View forum posts’.
  • Click on My SitePoint in the main menu
  • Click on your username in the top right menu

I am probably posting wrong.

All fine, except that you should wrap [B][noparse]

 

[/noparse][/B] tags around your code. There is a # button for that if you don’t want to type it.

Thanks ralph.m!
