The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Drop down/roll over menu within XHTML/CSS site

Asked by systems_mitsui in Extensible HTML (XHTML), Cascading Style Sheets (CSS), JavaScript

Tags: menu, css, roll, down

Hi all,
I am building a site with XHTML/CSS and want to create a nice drop down menu for one of the links I have and need some advice for the following.
 As I'm quite new with CSS and XHTML I have been coding with just notepad after reading a few books on the subject.
Since I do not know how to code a drop down menu I used dreamweaver and the 'pop up menu' behaviour to add a drop down menu to a link called Promotions I have loacted at the top of my site. This is OK but  I'm going to have a problem with it.
Within the site I also have a floating java-script menu [in a div] that follows the browser window when you scroll up and down. On this floating menu I have the promotions link as well.
If I re-use the dreamweaver code for the promotions link on the floating menu I will have to set an X and Y for the drop down menu, yes?
Iif the div the 'promotions' link is in is floating how can I have the drop down menu for it follow its position?

I hope this makes sense. Basically I want a drop down /roll over menu to appear along side a link in a floating menu. How can I achieve this?
Also, is there a better way to create drop down/pop up menu? Maybe one that fades in/out.
I could revert to Flash, but I would rather keep the site Flash free.
