As I embark on creating my debut website using Bootstrap, I have incorporated a special CSS code snippet in my custom.css file to add an eye-catching animation to the dropdown menu in the navigation bar:
.open > .dropdown-menu {
-webkit-transform: scale(1, 1);
transform: scale(1, 1);
opacity:1;
}
.dropdown-menu {
opacity:3;
-webkit-transform-origin: top;
transform-origin: top;
-webkit-animation-fill-mode: forwards;
animation-fill-mode: forwards;
-webkit-transform: scale(1, 0);
display: block;
transition: all 0.2s linear;
-webkit-transition: all 0.2s linear;
}
Inexperienced in the realm of web development, I made the common oversight of solely testing my site in Chrome during the creation process. Upon nearing completion, I decided to check how it appeared in other browsers only to uncover a significant issue. Upon running the site in Internet Explorer and Firefox, I found that the dropdown menus were displaying as open by default and could not be toggled off.
Surprisingly, upon attempting to resolve this dilemma, I realized that simply removing or commenting out the aforementioned CSS significantly improved compatibility across various browsers. However, I remain adamant about retaining this dynamic animation feature for the functionality of the dropdown menu.
