Misclicking a link on careers dropdown navigation closes the navigation

Note - filling in this form will file an issue against the canonical.com website

Summary

How the careers dropdown navigation currently functions, if you miss click a link and click the background of the navigation, it closes. Maybe this is the intended behavior, but personally I found it annoying and un-intuitive

Process

Go to https://canonical.com/ on a large screen Open the careers dropdown navigation Click anywhere (that isn't a link)

Yes, it's intended, I believe that's how it was working on u.com before? The whole navigation of canonical.com may need a UX revision, it doesn't make much sense to have that large meganav for just career and a tiny one for the rest. So we can tackle this issue then.

@juanruitina shall I tackle this issue and improve it?

[juanruitina]

This is indeed awkward. Clicking on the meganav background shouldn't close it. However, clicking on the transparent overlay below it (the one that covers the whole page when the meganav is open) should close the meganav though. This would be consistent with the meganav in Ubuntu.com

Hi @petesfrench , This issue should be fixed after you are done with the new nav for canonical.com?

[petesfrench]

@immortalcodes correct. This can be closed.
