Menu
I have made a navbar with flex properties. Now I wish to add a drop down menu to a element in navbar, but it doesn't worked as expected.
@font-face {
font-family: Oxygen;
src: url('https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Oxygen');
}
body{
margin: 0;
}
nav {
background-color: #f8f8f8;
display: flex;
justify-content: space-between;
}
nav ul {
height: 50px;
display: flex;
align-items: center;
justify-content: flex-start;
margin: 0;
}
nav a {
text-decoration: none;
color: #777;
padding: 15px;
font-family: sans-serif;
font-size: 18px;
}
nav a:hover {
color: #000;
}
.logo a {
font-size: 25px;
}
nav ul {
list-style: none;
}
ul.drop-menu li {
display: none;
list-style: none;
}
li:hover > ul.drop-menu li {
display: flex;

Use any element to open the dropdown menu, e.g. a <button>, <a> or <p> element. Use a container element (like <div>) to create the dropdown menu and add the dropdown links inside it. Wrap a <div> element around the button and the <div> to position the dropdown menu correctly with CSS.
By adding position: relative to the nav and position: absolute to the dropdown, will make the dropdown position/size relative to the nav
Setting flex: 1 on the dropdown's flex items (li) will make them stretch horizontally
Updated/added these 3 rules
nav {
position: relative;
background-color: #f8f8f8;
display: flex;
justify-content: space-between;
}
li:hover > ul.drop-menu li {
display: flex;
flex: 1;
}
li > ul.drop-menu {
position: absolute;
display: flex;
left: 0;
top: 100%;
width: 100%;
}
