Css Overflow Problem


Moloney

Recommended Posts

Hi all,

 

I am using the translate property to pull down my nav buttons a little bit when they are hovered over.

The problem I am having though is that the overflow is hidden. I thought it should be visible by default?

 

nav ul li:hover {

-moz-transform:translate(-4px, 4px);

overflow:visible;

}

 

Also, even when I put overflow:visible; in specifically, it still is hidden because the background-color of the body shows up rather than the button background color.

 

In fact, I've tried a few different things now including changing the z-index and position to relative and I can't seem to get the overflow of these nav buttons to show up.

 

Any ideas anyone?

ok, i figured this one out. the problem was that the background color of the nav ul li:hover element had to be set to #fff just like the nav element.

But I thought this colour would have been inherited. Wonder why it wasn't? (maybe hover simply doesn't inherit parent features?)
