Now kindly make these customization changes to add your own links to menu:
- Each TAB can be edited by directly understanding the following HTML code,
<li><a href=”#“>TAB TEXT</a></li>
In each case replace the hash sign (#) with your page URL or link and replace the text with your page title. I have kept the page titles unchanged in the code above so that you could easily edit them by seeing the demo.
This is V1 of Multi Level Drop Down Menu. I will soon publish another article on this cool Multi Level Drop Down Menu. Till than stay tune!
Extra Help
The image below shows how the menu will look if CSS3 is not supported.
One Gradient Image is Used
A white-transparent image is used to achieve the gradient effect. Because the new CSS3 gradient feature is not supported by all browsers yet, it is safer to use a gradient background image.
The instensitiy of the gradient can be changed by shifting the background image up or down. Also, the gradient color can be easily adjusted by changing the background color.
The best part about this Multi Level Drop Down Menu is that you can give it any colour you want because here we are using a transparent gradient image which can take any colour you want. Like:
CSS Code
I’m not going to explain the CSS line by line. The images below explain the key points on how this dropdown is coded.
