Menu Navigation difficult in top menu

We have difficulty in navigating to child items in the top menu. If proceeding very slow and exactly via the indent at top left of child items the navigation works fine. If tried at normal speed the drop down child menus disappear.

Is there some style or code setting we can increase the mouse navigation area to be more flexible? I have tested the same on the Hot Joomla Demo site at demo.hotjoomlatemplates.com/index.php?template=events by going to Features --> Template Addons --> Hot Menu. Miss the opening and the child menu closes down immediately.

The template is perfect for all other requirement and our client is very happy with it all

Many thanks for your assistance as always.

can you send us your link

Good morning Ivan,

207.7.92.191/~sleepser/ as we haven't reset the DNS for the domain as yet. When the site is completed and working correctly the domain will be pointed to it.

Any help or advice would be appreciated.

Cheers

Shane

Open template_css.css and find:

#nav li ul {
padding: 30px 15px 15px 15px;
}

put smaller values like:

#nav li ul {
padding: 6px 3px 3px 3px;
}

this will shrink drop-down area , then to return original look by adjusting padding property from this:

#nav li ul li, #nav li ul li ul {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
float: none;
cursor: pointer;
}


use all four values to fit it right like this:

padding: 4px 4px 6px 4px;

That works brilliantly Ivan. Many thanks for your assist and prompt reply.
It is always appreciated.
