    I just made a dropdown menu using these instructions and it worked. How do I move/change the position of my drop down menu in HTML?
    Community Answer
    To move this dropdown menu, cut out the tags that signify the dropdown (particularly, cut out the code between and its closing pair) and paste them somewhere else. Additionally, you can add some code to the style for the dropdown class such as float, to align the menu to your liking.

    How do I make a drop down menu for my mobile devices?
    Community Answer
    You can create different menus for navigation in your website. To create a drop-down menu, you need to create a menu using unordered lists and a sublist to represent the lower menu. You need a text editor like Notepad++ to create the code. First create an unordered list that will represent the menu and then create sublists inside the desires list item(s). You will need to use CSS to hide the lower menu and redisplay it when hovering over the upper menu.

    I've made the dropdown menu, however when I hover over the box, the menu comes down but the options aren't clickable? And the menu disappears when hovering over it instead. What should I do?

    You might need to add the anchor tags which link you to a new page. they look like <a></a>. Also you might need to add a URL in your anchor tags if you haven't already. If not then maybe check the styling of your element in the .css file.

    You can use the CSS float property to align the dropdown menu by using float: right; to float it to the right. Alternatively, you can use the CSS display and position properties. Set the display property of your dropdown items to inline-block and use text-align: center; on the parent element to center them. For a dropdown that appears on hover, use position: relative; on the parent element and position: absolute; on the dropdown content.

    To achieve uniformity in font between your normal link and dropdown menu, modify the CSS for the dropdown button to match the styling of the normal link button.
