The community is having a problem on different mobile devices with the way the menu operates and displays. I'm calling on the community for assistance to help resolve this faster than I wold. Since I'm getting a lot of complaints and I haven't yet fixed this and I'm sucky at javascript I may as well ask for community help.

Here is the challenge. I want that navigation system we have. The header menu is going to stay. However, it doesn't function perfectly across some iPhone devices. Some report that it's fully open on each page. Others show screenshots where the nav isn't 100% width across the top.

Initially I was using initial-scale=1.0 for the viewport meta tag but I keep playing with it to see how it effects the mobile page. Right now viewport is .75 because members complained about the forum being zoomed.

Here is the files it uses:
https://hackforums.net/jscripts/topnav.js
https://hackforums.net/cache/themes/theme10/topnav.css

Our current viewport meta.
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0" />

And yes, I used a library and altered it for my needs. I am not ashamed of using a library, everyone does that. And for anyone who uses jquery, you're using a library too.

So any pros that can help? I, and the community, would certainly appreciate it.

Wishing I wasn't a scrubber and had some skills to help xD

Can't you add hamburger menu for phone users? Would solve it all.
Or make the nav menu vertically for phone users?

I think one of those would fix our problems.
Or you want it to be same look even on phone?

I think you should try a different source code, the one you are using right now is 3 years old and won't work very well with latest devices. I found a better one.

I might be totally wrong, but I've had success before with changing the display. You have display style set on the "<ul>" tags. Try changing it to "relative" or "inline-block".

Try changing the position values to "fixed" and play with it. Some need a "fixed" position over a "absolute" position.

Here is the challenge. I want that navigation system we have. The header menu is going to stay. However, it doesn't function perfectly across some iPhone devices.  Some report that it's fully open on each page.  Others show screenshots where the nav isn't 100% width across the top.

Hopefully someone helps out with this, makes HF quite hard to browse on my s8+.

I dont know if you're currently altering the code but i see this on android 6 with firefox:

Jquery is a PITA.

@Crystallize. - Thanks for your help. He gave me some updated code that I have working right now.

Still in the process of trying to get this resolved and eventually it will be. I ask that members show patience while I try my hardest to improve and perfect our navigation for all devices and browsers (some task!).

Nope, made it much worse.

Yes, I'm aware that on certain mobile browsers this isn't working correctly.

I may just need to use a completely different menu system. This one may not work as we need it to.

Personally I use Hack Forums a lot via safari on my iPhone and everytime I browse a new page from there it extreme zooms me into making the menu look full screen, I will say forsure that the new menu looks way cleaner, glad to see you trying to make this perfect for everybody :)

I think you are having main issue due to :hover option in case, it doesn't works on touchscreen devices. Current code is very old and practically useless on new devices.

Obviously working on it. Kind of screwed up right now but again, working on it.

I would also like to point out that for me on my iPhone, the page is zoomed in on page refresh.
It's zoomed in to the top right corner where the width goes across the nav bar (which is at like 60% of the oage).
