Nav isn't at the top of the page? - html

I'm trying to have my nav at the top right of the page but it displays like 100px down from the top. I have no clue what's causing this, I tried altering the padding and margin of other things in the header but I cant solve it. Any help ?

You have set your header .container nav ul to float right, which is under your div#menuand that's where the space is coming: the space is caused by the svg element you have, which your 'hamburger' menu.
Here is one solution:
#menu {
float: left;
}
header .container nav ul {
float: right;
margin-top: 20px;
}

How do I get my navbar menu to line up with logo?

Here is the fiddle: https://jsfiddle.net/gnsho1br/2/
There were similar questions that suggests to set display to inline-block but I have done that. My container is col-1. I also tried to give my logo class of float: left but then the menu is off-center (maybe the left margin starts at the end of the logo???).
Use display: flex instead. If you want items to be centered, try align-items: center, justify-items: center. Refer to Flexbox for more info.

Align everything vertically inside navbar

I am trying to center everything vertically inside the container of the navbar, called (header-area) such that everything is inline. At the moment the img, left navigation and right navigation are all aligned differently in the container.
An alternative solution is welcome, too.

Add the following styles to menu-main-menu ul
display: flex;
align-items: center;
Your .logo-wrap value has a float value of left, so you'll want to make sure the other children have a similar quality to appear inline. To do this, add a float: left; styling with your header-left class. For this example, I shrunk the font size and padding to demonstrate the new float value and padding.
I highly recommend researching 'flex' to align your navigation. With flex, you can treat each nav item (logo, links, buttons) as child, and align them vertically with justify-content: center;. This way you won't have to worry about floats or padding issues.

I changed your font-size for demonstration purpose

First website html only takes half page

I am having problems with my code only filling up half the screen. It will fill the left half but not the right. I tried setting html height and width to 100% but it did not fix the problem. I also could not click on my href's to other pages after doing this. Any help would be great.

How do I keep my nav bar off of a header image?

So I cant find a way to keep this navbar in my website from automatically putting itself over top of a header image! I try setting the navbar's position to relative, but that doesn't do anything! I wanna keep my header image's position to be both top and left 0, but without setting the images position to absolute, I cannot get the image to stay at 0 top and left on the screen!

try this in css
.navbar{

z-index: 11;
}
.header-img{
z-index:10;
}
I would recommend using a background image which will give you more control over the image re-sizing respective to your container. You can implement something like below to achieve what you want.
body {
font-family: Roboto;
background-color: #F0F0F0;
}
#header-wrapper {
width: 100%;
height: 50px;
}
.header-img {

background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-size: auto 100%;
top: 0px;
left: 0px;
}
.navbar {
float: left;
width: 80%;
}
.navbar ul {

}
.navbar ul li {

Responsive Page Blank

Hope all is well with you, I am testing responsive site via media queries(max-width at 960px & 480px), I suspect why page become blank or white background instead background image, maybe it has to do with Foundation 5's overflow hidden? override foundation file?
If I remove Foundation's href link under head tags, background image is back normally. Since I am new to Foundation, what's the solution?

/* Media Queries */

#media (min-width: 481px) and (max-width: 700px) {

}
The problem is with where your </nav> is. Because of the media queries your nav collapses when the screen is small enough. but the .bgImage is included in the nav so it also collapses.
Change to:
<nav class="top-bar" data-topbar role="navigation">
<ul class="title-area">
<li class="name">
<h1>Mike Davis</h1>
</li>
<!-- Remove the class "menu-icon" to get rid of menu icon. Take out "Menu" to just have icon alone -->
<li class="toggle-topbar menu-icon"><span></span></li>
</ul>
<!--Section wrap -->
<section class="topbar">
<ul class="topside-nav">
<li>Portfolio</li>
<li>Pictures</li>
<li>Map</li>
<li>Contact</li>
</ul>
</section>
</nav> <!--- ADD </nav> here -->
<!--Short Description -->
<div class="myDiv">
<div class="bgImage" style="position: absolute; top: 90%; left: 0px;">
<h1>Hello! I am Mike</h1>
<p>I enjoy building websites for individuals and businesses!</p>
</div>
</div>
<!--- DELETE THIS NAV </nav> -->
</body>
</html>
And now you need to fix the top padding/margin for the .bgImage but this should fix the disappearance of your image.
changing:
<div class="bgImage" style="position: absolute; top: 90%; left: 0px;">
to:
<div class="bgImage" style="position: absolute; top: 19%; left: 0px;">
should do the trick. Better move that to your style.css though.
