Making a Sub Menu for a nav not neccesarily a drop down menu

[WinstonAlbernackyVII]

I want a nav menu where i can hover one nav element and reveal a sub menu beneath it. If you go to this site
[http://thematrix101.com/matrix/](http://thematrix101.com/matrix/ “Matrix 101 dotCom”)

you can see that The Matrix nav is clicked and beneath that is a series of other menus. What i want is that effect but to happen on a hover effect for each nav. i don’t want to have to click each nav to reveal its sub menu.

Please don’t copy ANY code from the linked site.

It’s not using an actual menu for the ‘sub-menu’ just a bunch of links all jammed in as text….plus it’s built using tables.

That was so helpful thank you. I’ll be sure to ask you every time. Clearly i know what the code would look like.

Then perhaps you would care to show us how far you have gotten in Codepen so we can assist you further.

We’re willing to help you with the bits you can’t get but if you won’t even help yourself….

i don’t know any of the bits. That’s why i asked the question so vaguely other than the conceptual idea of “a nav with a hover state that reveals a horizontal sub menu beneath each NavLink” and a provided link to support the idea.

My Question again was….
“I want a nav menu where i can hover one nav element and reveal a sub menu beneath it. If you go to this site http://thematrix101.com/matrix/

you can see that The Matrix nav is clicked and beneath that is a series of other menus. What i want is that effect but to happen on a hover effect for each nav. i don’t want to have to click each nav to reveal its sub menu.”

Each menu must be aligned horizontally, as in the example of the matrix 101 site. Each NavLink having a hover effect that shows this horizontal sub menu.

Then this wasn’t true?

Have you tried **anything** yet or am I misjudging your level of expertise in HTML & CSS?

I’m happy to ‘get you over the hump’, but I’m not going carry you up the hill.
