Bootstrap menu test

Post by alan_sh »

I'm checking out the bootstrap navigation menu (paid) as it looks good.

I've changed the background and background active colours to transparent and the hover colourto blue. Looks OK, except the first menu item, when I hover over it, doesn't go to blue. The others do.

What am I missing?

Here's a link to the project https://www.dropbox.com/s/ri32lhhpckav2 ... t.wbs?dl=1 - all it has is the menu inside a layout grid.

cheers

You have marked the first item 'active' so that item will use the 'active' background color.

Thank you - I didn't even spot that.

Next issue - same link as above.

I have set the active background colour to red. I would expect that, when I click on a menu item (top level) that the hover colour would change from blue to red. But it stays at blue.

Once again, what have I missed?

The activate color will overrule the hover color, so the color will not change on hover.

Pablo, the colour doesn't change when I click on the tab. I would expect it to change to red (the active colour).

Or, am I misunderstanding what 'active' means?

OK - it looks like I am misunderstanding what 'Active' means.

So, what is the purpose of making one tab as 'active'? I can't see the point.

'Active' means the item links to the current page.
