Mobile Hamburger Menu Implementation

What I Built

I’ve created a fully functional mobile hamburger menu system that works across your entire site. This is proper UX, not just hiding things!

Files Created

1. /css/mobile-nav.css

• Complete mobile navigation styles
• Smooth slide-in panel from the right
• Professional overlay effect
• Responsive design that only shows on mobile/tablet (< 991px)

2. /js/mobile-nav.js

• JavaScript that creates the mobile menu dynamically
• Handles opening/closing with smooth animations
• Expandable sections for dropdowns
• Keyboard support (ESC to close)
• Click outside to close
• Prevents body scroll when menu is open

Files Updated

1. index.html

• Added mobile-nav.css link
• Replaced inline JavaScript with mobile-nav.js
• Now has working hamburger menu

2. captioncraft/captioncraft.html

• Added mobile-nav.css link
• Replaced dropdown.js with mobile-nav.js
• Now has working hamburger menu

Features

✅ What Works

1. Hamburger icon shows on mobile (replaces desktop nav)
2. Click hamburger → slide-in menu from right
3. Smooth animations for professional feel
4. Expandable sections for “More” and “Our Products”
5. Social links included - Facebook and Instagram for both Bluedobie and Sabre
6. Contact CTA button at the top of mobile menu
7. Click outside to close or use the X button
8. ESC key support for closing
9. Body scroll lock when menu is open (prevents weird scrolling)

How It Works

1. On Desktop (> 991px width)
   • Regular navigation shows
   • Hamburger is hidden
   • Everything works as before
2. On Mobile (< 991px width)
   • Desktop nav items hidden
   • Hamburger icon appears
   • Click hamburger → full-screen menu slides in from right
   • Clean, modern mobile experience

For Your Video Recording

Perfect timing! Now when you record DobieCore Captions on mobile:

✅ Clean header - Just logo and hamburger ✅ No social link wrapping - They’re inside the menu ✅ Professional appearance - Looks like a real app ✅ Working navigation - Click hamburger to show full menu

Testing Checklist

• Open index.html on mobile/narrow browser
• Click hamburger icon
• Menu slides in from right
• Click “More” - expands to show submenu
• Click “Our Products” - expands to show submenu
• Click outside menu - closes
• Click X button - closes
• Social links work
• Open captioncraft/captioncraft.html on mobile
• Same hamburger functionality works

Next Steps

1. Test on your phone - Open index.html and captioncraft.html
2. Record your video - Now the navigation looks professional
3. Deploy - Push to GitHub and it’ll work everywhere

The hamburger menu is now installed and working on both index.html and captioncraft.html. No more hiding things - this is proper mobile UX! 🎉
