css dropdown menu from ws3 website

I just copied the css dropdown menu example from the ws3 website

aaand it doesnt work with my code. I checked to see if I made a typo, I didnt.

also I tried to just copy the code and see if it works, and it did, but when I put other stuff for my page in (like sub the ws3's content with mine) it doesnt.

Could you guys guide me through this please?
Thank you :)

my code( html):

<nav>
<ul>
<li><a href="#">front page</a></li>
<li><a class ="active" href="#">paintings</a></li>
<li class="dropdown"><a href="javascript:void(0)" class="dropbtn">Series</a>
<div class="dropdown-content">
<a href="#">City</a>
<a href="#">80's windbreaker</a>
<a href="#">Link 3</a>
</div>
</li>
</ul>
</nav>


just the navigation bar section

css:

ul
list-style-type: none;
margin: 0;
padding: 0;

It looks like like the problem is the position: sticky on the ul element. Removing that allows the dropdown to work.

position: sticky
