How can i set this navbar at the bottom? - html

I would like to know the way in which i can set this navbar just at the bottom of the page. I've been trying everything but it does not seems to be set at the bottom. I've tried with bottom, margin-bottom, i also dont know if there is a configuration i already set in my css that does not let these commands mentioned before to work.

}

You can try position:fixed:
nav{
position:fixed;
bottom:0;
left:0;
width:100%;
}

You can set nav .menu as position: absolute; bottom:0;
nav .menu{
text-align: center;
margin-bottom:0px;
width: 100%;
position: absolute;
bottom:0;
}
JsFiddle https://jsfiddle.net/viethien/gxw0dacb/3/

In addition to margin-bottom: 0, try adding bottom: 0. The margin-bottom only creates no margin at the bottom of the element, but that doesn't make the element at the bottom of the user interface. The bottom: 0 property and value will make 0 space from the bottom to the element. That might've been confusing, but the code for the navbar should look like so:
nav .menu{
text-align: center;
margin-bottom: 0px;
bottom: 0;
width: 100%;
}
You can read more about the bottom property here.

I want a clean Animation like of a good dropdown menu navbar and with clear overlaps, Also I may add some more elements inside the navbar (With Further Updates)?
This is how to make a dropdown menu but I'm not sure how to do an animation. I hope this is what you meant by the dropdown menu.

You should apply the transition to the element, not its hover state. With transition you are telling telling the element how to behave if anything changes. In this case all styles (that are susceptible to a transition) for a period of 0.3 seconds with an ease-in-out speed curve.
Then use the :hover selector to indicate what changes need to be made. So in this case change the background color and add an underline to the text.
Also avoid using inline styles when possible.

</ul>

If you intended to apply an underline to the bottom of the box instead of the text you can use border-bottom and makes sure to use box-sizing: border box so your element will remain the same size when the border gets added.

margin: 0;
padding: 0;

<nav>
<ul>
<li>კონტაქტი</li>
<li>ჩვენს შესახებ</li>
<li>ქეისები</li>
</ul>
</nav>
Add text-decoration:underline to your li:hover code like this...
li a:hover {
text-decoration:underline;
}
HTML Code Invalid you added <a> section in <ul> without <li> tag
<ul>
<img src="img/logo.png" alt="" style="width: 139px;" id="logo">
<li style="float: right;" class="hover-nav">კონტაქტი</li>
<li style="float: right;">ჩვენს შესახებ</li>
<li style="float: right;">ქეისები</li>
</ul>
changes to
<ul>
<li><img src="img/logo.png" alt="" style="width: 139px;" id="logo"></li>
<li style="float: right;" class="hover-nav">კონტაქტი</li>
<li style="float: right;">ჩვენს შესახებ</li>
<li style="float: right;">ქეისები</li>
</ul>
Edit in CSS:
ul {
width:100%;
display: flex;
align-items: center;
}
li {
width:100%; // remove padding and add to `li a`.
}
li a{
border-bottom:4px solid transparent;
height: 100px !important;
display: flex;
align-items: center;
justify-content: center;
}
li a:hover { // instead of .hover-nav
background-color: tomato;
border-bottom:4px solid #fff;
}
// remove #logo margin

how to make element width stay the same while text grows on hover?

Title says it all, I cannot figure out how to have an element stay the same width while the text inside it grows, if anyone knows how to do this, that would be great!
p.s, I've tried to use box-sizing, and position: relative, and all that.
.menu{
width: 100%;
position: fixed;
background-color: #333;
}
.menu nav ul{
list-style: none;
list-style-type: none;
padding: 0;
margin: 0;
}
.menu nav ul li{
display: inline-block;
}
.menu nav ul li button{
margin-left: 20px;
background-color: #d63031;
font-size: 22px;
color: #fffff7;
border-style: none;
border-bottom: 4px solid rgba(0,0,0,.3) !important;
padding: 15px 22px;
text-transform: uppercase;
font-family: 'Open Sans', sans-serif;
outline: none;
border-radius: 6px;
}
.menu nav ul li a{
display: block;
padding: 30px 20px;
font-size: 22px;
color: #fffff7;
line-height: 12px;
text-decoration: none;
text-transform: uppercase;
}
.menu nav ul li a:hover{
transition: all .3s ease;
-o-transition: all .3s ease;
-ms-transition: all .3s ease;
-moz-transition: all .3s ease;
-webkit-transition: all .3s ease;
background-color: rgb(0,0,0,.8);
font-size: 26px;
}
Just share my code, using transform to scale text instead of font-size on a:hover, hope it meets your requirements or gives you inspiration:
a {
display: block;
padding: 30px 20px;
font-size: 22px;
}
a:hover {
-webkit-transform: scale(1.18); /* 22px * 1.18 = 26px */
-moz-transform: scale(1.18); /* 22px * 1.18 = 26px */
transform: scale(1.18); /* 22px * 1.18 = 26px */
}
ul {
list-style: none;
padding: 0;
margin: 0;
display: flex;
}
li {
border: 1px solid #ccc;
}
li a {
padding: 30px 20px;
transition: all .3s;
}

Font displays different in Chrome and in Firefox

I am a bit new when it comes to web development.
I have created a menu but its buttons width are different depending on the browser (Firefox or Chrome)
In Firefox, we can see that the end of the last button of the menu is aligned with the div below. We can also appreciate that the width of the button is 136.5px
However, in Chrome the fonts are bolder and the menu end is pushed a bit forward. Here, the width of the button is 139.281px
This is the site, the menu is on the top: http://www.metagame.gg/champions/
This is the HTML and the CSS code for the menu
.navigator {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
display: flex;
padding-left: 39px;
background: #8C9BAA;
}
.navigator li {
display: inline-block;

}

I think it is because the font is a bit bolder in Chrome and that causes the button width to be higher.
Thanks in advance
Update: This is because each browser has its own font rendering engine.
I replicated your results with your current sans-serif font. The case also occurred when I changed the font to monospace.
I believe you're better off using a non-system font. For instance, I wanted to see what would happen with a typical Google font such as Open Sans, and I found that the issue did not exist when using it.
By the way, good work on that website. It looks nice. TSM! TSM! TSM!
*{margin:0; padding:0;}
put this line in top of your css file. It helps me for different browser. Just let me know that it helps you or not.
.navigatorSecond li {
display: inline-block;
position: relative;
z-index:80;
}
instead of display inline-block use float left. that will not be different. or use .navigatorsecond{font-size=0;}

CSS Menu Disappears after Hover

I am learning css and I have created a vertical menu, hovering the mouse over the first menu item shows the sub-menu across. But my problem is, as soon as I move the mouse to the sub-menu, it disappears. How can I make it so it stays there until I clicked one of the sub-menu items? Please help.
Already searched through a lot of examples but none similar to this. I'm new to css and I'm not sure if my approach is the correct for this menu setup requirement. Please enlighten.
