Sub menu on scrollable parent using HTML and CSS
I am programming this on rails but the problem is in html+css+javascript.
<ul>
<li>Menu1
<ul style="overflow: hidden auto; height: 400px; display: none;">
<li class="sub-menu">
<a href="#">
<div>submenu1</div>
</a>
<ul style="left: 258px; height: 400px; display: none;">
<li>
<a href="#">
<div>Subsubmenu1</div>
</a>
</li>
<li class="line"></li>
<li>
<a href="#">
<div>Subsubmenu2</div>
</a>
</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>I have this long list of submenus so i want it scrollable.
As soon as i add overflow to the sub menu list the Sub Sub menus stop being displayed. I tried checking for javascript errors without success.

Can you include your CSS and Javascript into the snippet?

The question was rather general. Is it possible or not to have sub submenus on scrollable submenus? I added the code to illustrate. I think it is obvious I am not really good at frontend solutions so it would be difficult to find the relevant pieces of CSS and JS.

Your code above is not very helpful. Why are you usingdisplay none&leftCSS. Does it display when you remove thedisplay: none;style.

I am aware the piece of code is not helpful. As I stated previously I dont want a specific solution for this piece of code. I am asking a generic question whether it is possible to have a submenu(show on hover) on a scrollable parent.
