When clicking on the side-bar, it does not respond as expected

My website has a menu layout that features a logo on the left and an icon for the menu on the right side. When the icon is clicked, the menu slides in from the right side of the window, and when clicked again, it slides out. However, I am facing two issues:

1) The sidebar does not slide correctly when the logo is positioned below the icon (it works fine when above).

2) I would like the sidebar to slide up from the bottom of the icon rather than from the right side.

I am using Bootstrap 3 for this implementation.

HTML Code:

<div id="wrapper" class="toggled">
    <div id="sidebar-wrapper">
        <ul class="sidebar-nav">
            <li class="sidebar-brand"><a href="#">eKincare Menu</a></li>
            <li style="color:white;">Menu Item</li>
            <li style="color:white;">Menu Item</li>
            <li style="color:white;">Menu Item</li>
            <li style="color:white;">Menu Item</li>
            <li style="color:white;">Menu Item</li>
        </ul>
    </div>
    <div id="page-content-wrapper" style="margin:0;">
        <div class="container-fluid" style="padding:0;">
            <nav class="navbar navbar-default" role="navigation" style="background-color:#00bcd3; !important">
                <div class="container-fluid">
                    <ul class="nav navbar-nav navbar-right" style="color:white;">
                        <li>
                            <a href="#menu-toggle" id="menu-toggle">
                                <i class="icon icon-menu pull-right">
                                    <img src="https://cdn1.iconfinder.com/data/icons/android-user-interface-vol-1/16/38_-_menu_bar_lines_option_list_hamburger_web-128.png" width=50 height=30 style="padding-left:5px;">
                                </i>
                            </a>
                        </li>
                       <li><img src="logo.png" alt="Logo"></li>
                    </ul>
                </div>
            </nav>
        </div>
    </div>
</div>

CSS Code:

#wrapper {
    display:block;
    padding-right: 250px;
    -webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease;
    -moz-transition: all 0.5s ease;
    -o-transition: all 0.5s ease;
    transition: all 0.5s ease;
}
#sidebar-wrapper {
    z-index: 1000;
    position: fixed;
    right: 250px;
    height: 100%;
    margin-right: -250px;
    overflow-x: hidden;
    background: #000;
    -webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease;
    -moz-transition: all 0.5s ease;
    -o-transition: all 0.5s ease;
    transition: all 0.5s ease;
}
#sidebar-wrapper {
    width: 250px;
}
#page-content-wrapper {
    z-index:10;
    width: 100%;
    position: absolute;
    margin-left: -250px;
}
.sidebar-nav {
    position: absolute;
    top: 0;
    width: 250px;
    margin: 0;
    padding: 0;
    list-style: none;
}
.sidebar-nav li {
    text-indent: 20px;
    line-height: 40px;
    padding-right: 17%;
}
.sidebar-nav li a {
    display: block;
    text-decoration: none;
    color: #999999;
}
#wrapper.toggled {
    padding-right: 0;
}  
#wrapper.toggled #sidebar-wrapper {
    width: 0;
}
#page-content-wrapper {
    position: relative;
}
#wrapper.toggled #page-content-wrapper {
    position: relative;
}

JS Code:

$(document).ready(function(){
    $("#menu-toggle").click(function (e) {
      e.preventDefault();
      $("#wrapper").toggleClass("toggled");
    });
});

The logo-image used as a "list-item" should be placed above the menu-icon for proper functionality. You can access the example here.

Update: The sliding bar issue was resolved due to my mistake.

In the mobile version, I aim to make the menu bar slide up from below instead of the right side similar to the default Bootstrap navbar. Any insights on how to achieve this are appreciated.

Answer №1

Issue lies in the structure you have created, not with the list items.

The code is functioning properly.

I have removed the list item as it was causing the width of both the list and anchor tags to be 100%.

Answer №2

The current code functions properly, however, the image logo.png is not visible on the page which may be causing the click area to be blocked. To thoroughly test this, it would be necessary to add the image.

Try adding some alert('hi'); statements within the function to determine if the clicks are registering but only the slides are malfunctioning...

Apologies for any language errors in my communication.

Answer №3

The functionality is activated when you click slightly above the #menutoggle element, ensuring that the positioning of the img element is correct.
