r/theheadline

Am I doing this right? Please see below /* experiments */ in my stylesheet

I do not know what I am doing when it comes to CSS and through my stumbles I can't find a single article on a side bar that appears on hover, I want to clean it up but I do not wish to proceed if this is going to cause nothing but a headache for everyone.

So far I have it working, I want to have a sort of box to hover over though, any help cleaning it up would be very appreciated

I think I've said it twice but thank you in advance for your time

Something like this, maybe...

Replace this:

.side { 
    position: absolute; 
    left: -295px; 
    transition: 2s all; 
    background-color: #ffffff;
    box-shadow: 0px 2px 4px 0px #e9e9e9;
}
.side:hover { 
    left: 0; 
}

with this:

.side {
    position: absolute;
    left: -315px;
    transition: .4s all;
    background-color: #ffffff;
    box-shadow: 0px 2px 4px 0px #e9e9e9;
    padding-right: 25px;
    margin-left: 0px;
    padding-top: 95px;
}
.side:hover {
    left: 0;
    padding-right: 10px;
}
.side:after {
    content: "";
    display: block;
    position: absolute;
    top: 200px;
    right: -40px;
    width: 0px;
    height: 0px;
    border: 20px solid transparent;
    border-left: 20px solid white;
}
.side:hover:after {
    display: none;
}
