HTML-CSS: Menu on image hover
HTML-CSS : Exercise-37 with Solution
Using HTML, CSS displays a menu overlay when the user hovers over the image.
- Use a <figure> to wrap the <img> element and a <div> element that will contain the menu links.
- Use the opacity and right attributes to animate the image on hover, creating a sliding effect.
- Set the left attribute of the <div> to the negative of the element's width. Reset it to 0 when hovering over the parent element to slide in the menu.
- Use display: flex, flex-direction: column and justify-content: center on the <div> to vertically center the menu items.

A min-height for table, tr or td:
It's not a nice solution but try it like this:
<table> <tr> <td> <div>Lorem</div> </td> </tr> <tr> <td> <div>Ipsum</div> </td> </tr> </table>
and set the divs to the min-height:
div { min-height: 300px; }
