Drop down menu not showing sub menus

Here is the code for my dropdown button with 1 additional level.

When I click on button it works fine but when I try to click inside the dropdown for submenu so I realized something is wrong a all my four items showing the last submenu only. 

.icon-cadet-left {
  float: right;
}
.dropbtn {
  width: 300px;
  background-color: #4CAF50;
  color: white;
  padding: 16px;
  font-family: 'Play';
  font-size: 20px;
  border: none;
  cursor: pointer;
  text-transform: uppercase;
  letter-spacing: 2px;
}
.dropdown {
  position: relative;
  display: inline-block;
}
.dropdown-content {
  display: none;
  position: relative;
  background-color: #f9f9f9;
  min-width: 160px;
  box-shadow: 0px 8px 16px 0px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.2);
}
.dropdown-content a {
  width: 300px;
  color: black;
  font-family: 'Play';
  letter-spacing: 2px;
  padding: 12px 16px;
  text-decoration: none !important;
  display: block;
  text-align: center;
  border-bottom: 0.1em solid #e1e1e1;
  border-radius: 5%;
  text-transform: uppercase;
  overflow: hidden;
}
#dropdown-submenu {
  display: none;
  background-color: #f9f9f9;
  position: absolute;
  box-shadow: 0px 8px 16px 0px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.2);
  left: 100%;
  top: 0px;
}
#dropdown-submenu a {
  z-index: 1000;
  width: 300px;
  color: black;
  font-family: 'Play';
  letter-spacing: 2px;
  padding: 12px 16px;

I have seen your code has same id="dropdown-submenu" several times but that shouldn't be. The id attribute specifies a unique id for an HTML element (the value must be unique within the HTML document). If you need that as multiple times then you should declared as class="dropdown-submenu" then you have to use .dropdown-submenu instead of #dropdown-submenu.

Please correct first your id related bug then try. Hopefully it should work.

Thank you!

So this is what I changed in your code:

  1. You have invalid syntax- you can't have multiple ids- use classes for that.

    So I changed dropdown-submenu to a class.

  2. And instead of .dropdown-content:hover #dropdown-submenu use this:

    .dropdown-content a:hover + .dropdown-submenu {
    display: block;
}

    The adjacent sibling selector(+) selects dropdown-submenu that immediately follows the menu a tag.

Adjacent sibling selector (+) that selects the sibling element that immediately follows. See here and here for examples.

Let me know your feedback on this. Thanks!
