JQuery experiencing compatibility issues in both Firefox and Chrome

Working on my ASP.NET webpage has presented me with a frustrating problem that I cannot seem to solve.

After researching for three days, I have not found anyone who has faced this issue before or offered any solutions.

The menu/submenu created using HTML/CSS has a toggling effect that should slide down or fade in. While it works fine on Internet Explorer, Chrome and Firefox present challenges. The submenu appears correctly initially but then starts to close and reopen on its own when the mouse is moved away, creating a continuous cycle until the page reloads.

Below is the HTML code for the menu...

<ul id="menu">
        <li><a href="Default.aspx">Home</a></li>
        <li><a href="Services.aspx">Services</a>
            <ul id="submenu">
                <li>Custom CRM</li>
                <li>Website Development</li>
            </ul>
        </li>
        <li><a href="About.aspx">About</a></li>
        <li><a href="Contact.aspx">Contact Us</a></li>
    </ul>

This is the CSS related to the menu...

#menu
{
    padding:0;
    text-align: center;
    margin: 0;
    width: 100%;
}

#menu li 
{
    height: 35px;
    float: left;
    list-style: none;   
    width: 25%;
    font-size: larger;
    cursor: pointer;
    position: relative;

}
...

Lastly, here's the JQuery code implemented...

<script type="text/javascript">

    $(document).ready(function () {
        $("#menu ul").parent().hover(function () {
            $("#submenu").stop(true, true).fadeToggle("slow");
        });
    });

</script>

Any assistance in resolving this issue would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Answer №1

http://example.com

Does this meet your needs? (If not, please let me know how I can improve!)

I have revised the jQuery code to incorporate a fade-in effect for the sub elements, initially keeping the submenu hidden. In addition, I have eliminated the use of display:none in the CSS to facilitate this transition (as it is now concealed using .hide() )

Thank you!

Answer №2

First and foremost, the hover function in jQuery requires two separate functions to handle mouseover and mouseout events. I would also suggest using on for better efficiency:

$('#menu > li').on({
  mouseover: function() {              
    $(this).children('ul').slideDown(300);
  },
  mouseout: function() {
    $(this).children('ul').stop(true, false).hide();
  }
});

jQuery will automatically check if the li element has a child ul before performing any actions.
