    <p>I am seeing two different ways of referring to the unordered lists (<code>&lt;ul&gt;</code>), list items (<code>&lt;li&gt;</code>) and anchors (<code>&lt;a&gt;</code>).</p> <p>I want to set the attributes of these items in a drop down list with at least two levels of nested <code>&lt;ul&gt;</code>. </p> <p>My question is specifically about the ways to refer to the different levels of <code>&lt;ul&gt;</code>, <code>&lt;li&gt;</code> and <code>&lt;a&gt;</code> there in. </p> <p>I have named the navigation bar <code>id="navBar"</code>.</p> <p>I have seen on youtube: <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T7ayE5AtRUA" rel="nofollow">Building a drop down navigation bar</a></p> <p>The syntax used is:</p> <pre><code>ul#navBar .sub1 li ul#navBar .sub1 li a </code></pre> <p>Where the class "<em>.sub1</em>" has been defined, and is the first level of <em>nested</em> <code>&lt;ul&gt;</code>, and "<em>.sub2</em>" is the second level of nested <code>&lt;ul&gt;</code>. </p> <p>Referencing these levels, the code used is.</p> <pre><code>ul#navBar .sub2 a { background-color: blue;} ul#navBar li:hover &gt; a { background-color: #CFC; } </code></pre> <p>It seems to me, that going to the bother of defining <em>.sub1</em> and <em>.sub2</em> is superfluous, and I have been using the format:</p> <pre><code>#navBar ul li{ background-color: blue;} #navBar ul li:hover ul{ background-color: red;} </code></pre> <p>REAL QUESTION:</p> <p>What is the correct syntax, using my (code just above) style of formatting. To refer to a second level nested <code>&lt;ul&gt;</code> and affect the <code>&lt;li&gt;</code> or the <code>&lt;a&gt;</code> there in?</p> <p>I assumed it was along the lines of:</p> <pre><code> #navBar ul li ul li: hover ul{ background-color: red;} </code></pre> <p>But I am wrong :(</p>

    1. COEdit was fine, but I don't think I have the rep to approve, or even if that approval was needed. But I reviewed it and it looks good.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
