下拉菜单被头部遮挡截断，如何使其正常显示在触发链接下方？

核心问题分析 #

1. 下拉菜单被截断：是因为父元素.nav设置了overflow: hidden，会裁剪超出导航区域的内容
2. 定位偏移：.dropdownList使用position: absolute时，没有以触发它的.dropdownItem为基准定位，而是相对于上层的.nav
3. position: fixed不跟随：固定定位是基于视口的，自然不会随滚动的导航菜单移动

分步修复代码 #

1. 移除导致截断的设置 #

删除.nav中的overflow: hidden，让下拉菜单能正常超出导航区域显示：

.nav{
    width: 100%;
    height: 100%;
    position: relative;
    background-color: var(--black);
    /* 移除 overflow: hidden */
}

2. 设置下拉菜单的定位基准 #

给下拉菜单的父元素.dropdownItem添加position: relative，让absolute定位的下拉菜单以它为基准：

.dropdownItem {
    position: relative;
}

3. 调整下拉菜单的定位样式 #

修改.dropdownList的样式，确保它紧贴触发项底部，同时优化宽度和动画：

.dropdownList {
    position: absolute;
    background: #ededed;
    min-width: 150px; /* 自适应内容或设固定宽度 */
    top: 100%; /* 紧贴触发项底部 */
    left: 0;
    visibility:hidden;
    opacity:0;
    transition:all 0.2s linear;
    margin-top: 0; /* 用top控制位置，移除多余margin */
}

/* 优化下拉选项的交互体验 */
.dropdownList a {
    color: #36383F;
    display: block;
    padding: 12px 16px;
}

.dropdownList a:hover {
    background-color: #ddd;
}

4. 简化鼠标事件（可选） #

移除不必要的display: block，仅用visibility和opacity控制显示隐藏：

const dropdownItem = document.getElementById('dropdownItem');
const dropdownList = document.getElementById('dropdownList');

dropdownItem.addEventListener('mouseover', () => {
    dropdownList.style.opacity = 1;
    dropdownList.style.visibility = 'visible';
    dropdownList.style.marginTop = '0';
})

dropdownItem.addEventListener('mouseout', () => {
    dropdownList.style.opacity = 0;
    dropdownList.style.visibility = 'hidden';
    dropdownList.style.marginTop = '5px'; /* 保留位移动画 */
})
