}
.dropdown-content a:hover {

}
.dropdown:hover .dropdown-content {
display: block;
}
</style>
Move it down with top... just add the top here:
.dropdown-content {
top: 45px;
}
OR, add the dropdown-content inside the dropbtn - now they are not inside, but right after - eg:
<div class="dropdown">
<button class="dropbtn">
<i class="fa fa-caret-down"></i>
</button>
<div class="dropdown-content">
</div>
</div>

I have tried to follow this tutorial, but I can't seem to find out why the dropdown menu won't show up at all when hovering over the dropdown button in the nav bar.
This is the HTML part of the code:

The problem is that you are hiding the content which goes over the boundaries of your navbar and dropdown.
You need to remove
overflow: hidden;
from your #navbar and .dropdown class, check this fiddle
I'm new to HTML/CSS and I'm trying to add a dropdown button to my nav bar, currently the the dropdown content is appearing under the button(as intended) however it is stuck inside the nav bar and will not overlay below.
I would like the text in my navbar to remain central and the dropdown content to be visible below the button but also overlay outside of the navbar.
What do i need to change in order for this to be possible?
I have tried adding a z-index to elements to no avail and i have also played around with positioning of all the elements.

The problem is not in the z-index value, the thing is that in the container .navbar you set the overflow to hidden, so whenever the elements that are inside this container go beyond the limits of your container, this elements will be effectively hidden. Only by removing the property overflow: hidden; in the .navbar definition class your hover effect will work.

You code had a few problems. The value hidden in the overflow property hid your dropdown menu when it's height exceeded that of the dropdown class. Also you need to specify a top value that pushes the dropdown-content right beneath the dropbtn button. And to center the dropdown menu horizontally you need to add a right and left value of 0. I've changed your CSS code a little bit. Hope this solves your issue.
body {

Just remove Overflow: hidden in .navbar
or add this:
.navbar {
overflow: visible !important;
}
I have got a navbar problem again, because I had to change the code ect due to the navbar code overriding other contents on the page, but anyway The Nvigation text is not inline and I am finding it difficult to get it inline even after over an hor of research i am unable to find the answer..

You need to make .navbar a either inline-block or block. Your padding will not be applied as the a is inline by default.
.navbar a {
display: inline-block;
font-size: 16px;
...
}
I recommend you make the following changes.
Add the flexbox property to your .navbar class
Add align-items property center to your .navbar class - will align all the item menus
Get rid of display: inline-block on all your
.navbar {
overflow: hidden;
background-color: #333;
font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
text-align: center;
display: flex;
align-items: center;
}
.navbar a {
font-size: 16px;
color: white;
text-align: center;
padding: 14px 16px;
text-decoration: none;
}
// .dropdown {
// display: inline-block;
// overflow: hidden;
// }
.dropdown .dropbtn {
font-size: 16px;
border: none;
outline: none;
color: white;
padding: 14px 16px;
background-color: inherit;
font-family: inherit;
margin: 0;
//display: inline-block;
}
.navbar a:hover, .dropdown:hover .dropbtn {
background-color: red;

Welcome to StackOverflow Kyle!
The problem resides in not having a vertical-align style declaration on your .dropdown .dropbtn CSS class declarations. Add it in as shown below:
.dropdown, .dropbtn {
font-size: 16px;
border: none;
outline: none;
color: white;
padding: 14px 16px;
background-color: inherit;
font-family: inherit;
margin: 0;
display: inline-block;
vertical-align: middle; // Add this!
}
You'll also need to add a comma between the classes to make sure the styles are applied to both class declarations!
Here is a link to a codepen where you can view the result:
https://codepen.io/mikeabeln_nwea/pen/pxaMKV
I checked out your CSS in pastebin. I added
.navbar {
display:flex;
justify-content:center;
}
and you could also delete the text-align:center property
I am wondering how to align test to the middle of the navigation bar. My code is below:
body {

.navbar {

Nav Bar
I have tried using display: inline-block, I have tried removing float: left. All in which i tried below .navbar a and a bunch of other ways, but I still can't center it.
Any help would be greatly appreciated and thank you in advance.
I want to make a horizontal navigation bar that is sticky to the top with dropdown menus. The problem is that the dropdown menus no longer show when I make the navigation bar sticky.
I used the following CSS3 to achieve the sticky effect. Is there another way to accomplish the same effect, especially with CSS.
.topnav {
overflow: hidden;
background-color: #333;
position: fixed; /* This line adds stickyness */
top: 0; /* along with this line here */
width: 100%;
}
Minimum Problematic Example:
body {
margin: 0;
font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
}
.topnav {
overflow: hidden;
background-color: #333;
position: fixed;
top: 0;
width: 100%;
}
.topnav a {
float: left;
display: block;
font-size: 16px;
color: white;
text-align: center;
padding: 14px 16px;
text-decoration: none;

Thanks to Saeed and dkobando. I am only at the start of my web document journey. I have been slowly piecing together the parts of my site from various guides. I was pleasantly surprised by two helpful prompt answers. Your replies here encourage me to continue my journey.
You may try this fix below, I used a display flex and remove the overflow: hidden; on your .topnav class. I hope this will help.

That is because the dropdown is positioned absolutely and It won't be positioned according to the fixed nav bar but according to the closest relative positioned element. It can be quickly fixed with an extra wrapper with fixed positioning.
