css - pure css responsive menu

Question

busy testing out creating a responsive menu using just css. I used this tutorial as a base, and i've managed to get the menu to "collapse", but now I'm having trouble actually getting the menu to display when the button is clicked.

My code:

index.html

<html>
    <head>
        <title>Flex Test</title>
        <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="css/flex_test.css">
    </head>
    <body id="main-content">
        <header>
            <div id="top-nav">
                <div class="center-section">
                    <section id="logo">
                        <a href="">Home Logo</a>
                    </section>
                    <div class="collapse-menu">
                        <label for="show-menu" class="show-menu">Menu</label>
                        <input type="checkbox" id="show-menu" role="button">
                    </div>
                    <div class="navbar">
                        <ul>
                            <li><a href="">About</a></li>
                            <li><a href="">Store</a></li>
                            <li><a href="">Contact</a></li>
                        </ul>
                    </div>
                </div>
            </div>
        </header>
        <section class="landing">
        </section>
        <p class="article">
            Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.

A little help figuring out how to get the menu to display would be much appreciated. Thanks.

Edited: corrected the class selector in css.

Answer 1

You have wrong structure of your code. Your checkbox should be inside the same container as ul with menu links, then you must use correct id/class for this menu, because now your css is trying to show ".menu-main-navigation-container" and he is looking for it just after checked checkbox - but there is no element with this class in your code and definitely not after this checkbox in his container. Selector '~' means get next element with sth. Example, if you have 'p ~ ul' - it means: there are styles for 'ul' which is after 'p' in code, but inside the same container.
