/* 2nd container */ 
#menucontainer { width:100%; height:54px; background-color:#872e26; } 

#menubar { width:950px; height:54px; } 

#headerx { width:100%; height:5px; background:#872e26; background-image:url(../images/footerx.png); background-position:center; background-repeat:no-repeat; }

/* drop menu */ 
.mainnav { list-style-type:none; padding:0; margin:0; text-align:center; } 

.mainnav li { float:left; width:118.75px; } 

.mainnav a { text-decoration:none; color:#fff; display:block; line-height:54px; }

1. 我想，从下拉列表中的元素是一个在另一个之上，而不是像他们现在，一个紧挨着另一个。
2. 此外，子菜单继承导航的大小。我只能为子菜单定义较少的行高吗？

尝试了一切，我似乎没有找到过错。

Answer 1

添加position: relative父li元素：

.mainnav li { 
    float: left; 
    display: block; 
    width: 118.75px; 
    position: relative; 
} 

然后加入position:absolute孩子.submenu元素。这绝对定位相对于父元素的元素。

li:hover .submenu { 
    display: block; 
    position: absolute; 
} 

如果你想改变孩子li元素的line-height，你可以使用直接兄弟组合子，>目标后代的直接孩子li元素：

.column > li a { 
    line-height: 30px; 
}
