Dropdown menu html + css without JavaScript

January 25, 2022

Hello could someone please tell me why my menu does not go from page to page.
Dropdown works but when I click it doesn’t go to the subpage. Anticipating the question, I don’t want to use JavaScript. Buttons without dropdown menu works. If this cannot be fixed, could someone sent me a menu in similar style without JavaScript.
