  1. POBootstrap drop down menu showing blue box after clicking
    text
    copied!<p>I'm using Bootstrap to build a drop-down menu for one of my tabs in the navbar. I'm trying to customize it; however, there is always this blue box that hovers the tab after I click the tab.</p> <p>It doesn't happen if I don't click the tab at all, but it happens after clicking it once and hovering my mouse over the same tab. The same thing happens in the submenu.</p> <p>I've tried different ways to override the CSS, but it's not working. Here's my code for the navbar. How do I override this?</p> <pre><code> &lt;nav class="navbar"&gt; &lt;div class="navbar-inner"&gt; &lt;a href="#" class="brand"&gt;&lt;div id="brand_font"&gt;Christina Yang&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a class="btn btn-navbar" data-toggle="collapse" data-target=".nav-collapse"&gt; &lt;span class="icon-bar"&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class="icon-bar"&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class="icon-bar"&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/a&gt; &lt;div class="nav-collapse collapse"&gt; &lt;ul class="nav"&gt; &lt;li class="divider-vertical"&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;a href="#" id="inner-color"&gt;&lt;i class="icon-home"&gt;&lt;/i&gt;home&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li class="divider-vertical"&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;a href="#" id="inner-color"&gt;&lt;i class="icon-comment"&gt;&lt;/i&gt;blog&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li class="divider-vertical"&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;a href="#" id="inner-color"&gt;&lt;i class="icon-info-sign"&gt;&lt;/i&gt;about&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li class="divider-vertical"&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;a href="#" id="inner-color"&gt;&lt;i class="icon-camera"&gt;&lt;/i&gt;photography&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li class="divider-vertical"&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li class="dropdown"&gt; &lt;a href="#" class="dropdown-toggle" data-toggle="dropdown" id="inner-color"&gt; &lt;i class="icon-user"&gt;&lt;/i&gt;connect &lt;b class="caret"&gt;&lt;/b&gt; &lt;/a&gt; &lt;ul class="dropdown-menu"&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;a href="#"&gt;LinkedIn&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li class="divider"&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;a href="#"&gt;contact&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;/ul&gt; &lt;/li&gt; &lt;li class="divider-vertical"&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;/ul&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;/nav&gt; </code></pre> <p>Here's my relevant CSS work for this section. </p> <pre class="lang-css prettyprint-override"><code> @media (max-width: 767px) { .navbar .nav &gt; .active &gt; a:hover, .navbar .nav &gt; .active &gt; a:focus { background-color: #009999; display: none; border: none; /*box-shadow: 0 3px 8px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.125) inset;*/ color: #555555; text-decoration: none; } } @media (max-width: 767px) { .nav-collapse .nav &gt; li &gt; a:hover, .nav-collapse .nav &gt; li &gt; a:focus, .nav-collapse .dropdown-menu a:hover, .nav-collapse .dropdown-menu a:focus { background-color: #009999; } } @media (max-width: 480px) { .nav-collapse .nav &gt; li &gt; a:hover, .nav-collapse .nav &gt; li &gt; a:focus, .nav-collapse .dropdown-menu a:hover, .nav-collapse .dropdown-menu a:focus{ background-color: #009999; } } .dropdown-menu a:hover,.dropdown-menu a:focus{ filter:none !important; -webkit-transition:background 1s ease; -moz-transition:background 1s ease; -o-transition:background 1s ease; transition:background 1s ease; } .dropdown-menu::after, .dropdown-menu::before{ border:none !important; } @media (max-width: 979px) { .navbar .nav &gt; li &gt; .dropdown-menu:after { border: none; } .navbar .nav &gt; li &gt; a, .navbar .dropdown-menu a { border-radius: 0; color: white; font-weight: normal; padding: 10px 10px 11px; } .dropdown-toggle &gt; a:visited { border: none; display: none; box-shadow: none; } .dropdown-toggle &gt; a:active { border: none; display: none; box-shadow: none; } .navbar .nav &gt; li &gt; a:hover { display: none; } .navbar .nav &gt; li &gt; a { font-family: "Lucida Grande", "Lucida Sans Unicode", "Lucida Sans", Geneva, Verdana, sans-serif; } } </code></pre>
