10 CSS Dropdown Buttons

A dropdown button in CSS refers to a button that, when clicked, displays a list of options or a menu. This is a common feature in web design, used for navigation menus, form inputs, or any other place where a user might need to choose from multiple options.

To create a dropdown button, you typically use a combination of HTML and CSS, and often JavaScript for interactivity. Here’s a basic overview of how you might structure and style a dropdown button:

Structure Overview:

HTML Structure: You’ll have a button or a similar element, and a container for the dropdown content. The dropdown content usually contains a list of options.
CSS Styling: The button and dropdown content can be styled using CSS. This includes positioning the dropdown content relative to the button, styling the list items, and hiding/showing the dropdown content.
JavaScript Interaction: JavaScript is often used to handle the show/hide functionality of the dropdown content when the button is clicked.
