nav ul li:hover {
    background-color: #000;
}
nav ul li a:hover {
    color: #fff;
}
nav ul li a {
    display: block;
    padding: 25px 15px;
    color: #6F0;
    text-decoration: none;
}
nav ul ul {
    border-radius: 0px;
    padding: 0;
    position: absolute;
}
nav ul ul li {
    float: none;
    position: relative;
}
nav ul ul li a {
    padding: 15px 40px;
    color: #000;
}

Any help will be appreciated.

Answer 1

Working fiddle:

Change the styles for the below two:

nav ul li:hover {
border-bottom: 1px solid #000;
color: #000;
}

nav ul li a:hover {
color: #000;
}

And add:

nav ul li:hover li:hover{
        background: #000;
}

In order to style the sub-menus.

The first ( li:hover ) you want to set a bottom border - you can change the width of this border from 1px to something more thick, say, 3px
