you need to add a value for 'left' to the nav-content div like this:
.nav-content {
position: absolute;
top: 13.3em;
z-index: -1;
padding: 1.3em 0 !important;
overflow: hidden;
width: 100%;
background-color: #a656dc;
left: 0; /*add this*/
}
and to center the menu add margin:auto to the ul element like this:
.nav-content ul {
margin:auto;
}

so I've tried a few different things out. But ultimately no success. I'm trying to change the colour of the "Home" link to stay a different colour than the rest when we are specifically on the homepage. So for example, say I'm on the homepage, I specifically want that colour to be orange for the home link, and then when I click on About link, about link changes to orange and the home goes to default white

So for example, say I'm on the homepage, I specifically want that
colour to be orange for the home link, and then when I click on About
link, about link changes to orange and the home goes to default white
One CSS-only approach is to:
add a class to the <body> element of each page
add classes to each of your links (or to the list-items containing the links)
Home Page:
<body class="home-page">
<ul class="nav-menu">
<li class="nav-items home">Home</li>
<li class="nav-items about">About</li>
<li class="nav-items order">Order</li>
<li class="nav-items contact">Contact</li>
<li class="nav-items cart">Cart</li>
</ul>
About Page:
<body class="about-page">
<ul class="nav-menu">
<li class="nav-items home">Home</li>
<li class="nav-items about">About</li>
<li class="nav-items order">Order</li>
<li class="nav-items contact">Contact</li>
<li class="nav-items cart">Cart</li>
</ul>
Then you can change the color of the relevant link on each page:
.nav-items a {
color: white;
}
.home-page .nav-items.home a,
.about-page .nav-items.about a {
color: orange;
}
You need to add a class to the active link and #id is not recommended for styling. Also, the pseudo classes that you're using is blocking your desired outcome. Try changing :
#active-home:link,
#active-home:visited {
color: #e88f2a !important;
}
to:
.active {
color: #e88f2a !important;
}
Afterwards, place the .active class into your link code for each page. So for home it would be:
<li class="nav-items active">Home</li>
and for your about page:
<a href="#">
<li class="nav-items">Home</li>
</a>
<a href="about.html">
<li class="nav-items active">About</li>
</a>
and so on...
Here's my HTML:
<body>
<nav class="navbar">
<span class="navbar-toggle" id="js-navbar-toggle">
<i class="fas fa-bars"></i>
</span>
logo
<ul class="main-nav" id="js-menu">
<li>
Home
</li>
<li>
Products
</li>
<li>
About Us
</li>
<li>
Contact Us
</li>
<li>
Blog
</li>
</ul>
</nav>
</body>
Here's my CSS:
* {
box-sizing: border-box;
padding: 0;
margin: 0;
}
body {
font-family: "Josefin Sans", sans-serif;
}
.navbar {
font-size: 18px;
padding-bottom: 10px;
}
.main-nav {
list-style-type: none;
display: none;
}
.nav-links,
.logo {
text-decoration: none;
color: black;
}
.main-nav li {
text-align: center;
margin: 15px auto;
}
.logo {
display: inline-block;
font-size: 22px;
margin-top: 10px;
margin-left: 20px;
}
.navbar-toggle {
position: absolute;
top: 10px;
right: 20px;
cursor: pointer;
color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.8);
font-size: 24px;
}
.active {
display: block;
}
And this is the output I'm getting:
I'd like my output to be like this instead (ignore the spacing difference, just my screenshot, but have them split in the center like so):
What's the best way of doing this?
I'm thinking of creating another unorder list and moving it, but I don't know how to do that.
Make use of justify-content: space-between;.
* {
box-sizing: border-box;
padding: 0;
margin: 0;
}
ul {
list-style-type: none;
}
.nav-links, .logo {

Is it possible to position drop down menu under specific button, and not first one by default using only css?
For example, how to but drop down under forth button instead of first one (under INFO instead HOSTEL button)? I know that people usually use <ul> and <li> elements when creating drop downs, but I am interested is it possible to choose a position when using <button> element.
.dropbtn {
background-color: #000000;
color: white;
padding: 8px;
font-size: 9px;
width: 80px;
margin-right: 5px;
font-family: 'Istok Web', sans-serif;
border: none;
cursor: pointer;
}
.dropdown {
position: relative;
display: inline-block;
float: left;
top: 6.7%;
margin-left: 5px;
}
.dropdown-content {
display: none;
position: absolute;
background-color: #95e5c4;
font-family: 'Istok Web', sans-serif;
text-align: center !important;
font-size: 9px;
width: 80px;
box-shadow: 0px 6px 12px 0px rgba(0,0,0,0.2);
z-index: ;
}
.dropdown-content a {
color: black;
padding: 8px 12px;
text-decoration: none;
display: block;
}
.dropdown-content a:hover {background-color: #e6e6e6}
.dropdown:hover .dropdown-content {
display: block;
}
<div class="dropdown">
<button class="dropbtn">HOSTEL</button>
<button class="dropbtn">RESERVATION</button>
<button class="dropbtn">GALLERY</button>
<button class="dropbtn">INFO</button>
<div class="dropdown-content">
EVENTS IN ZG
</div>
<button class="dropbtn">FIND US</button>
</div>
Adding margin-left to the dropdown-content class can be a good choice but may not be the best one. And obviously you have to calculate the value of margin which fits for your actual case. In the example you provided, setting
margin-left to 267px looks fine, I guess.
Edit:
As, OP stated that screen resolutions can be an issue, here's the pure css solution without using any extra margin.
.dropbtn {
background-color: #000000;
color: white;
padding: 8px;
font-size: 9px;
width: 80px;
margin-right: 5px;
font-family: 'Istok Web', sans-serif;
border: none;
cursor: pointer;
}
.dropdown {
display: inline-block;
float: left;
top: 6.7%;
margin-left: 5px;
}
.dropdown-content {
display: none;
background-color: #95e5c4;
font-family: 'Istok Web', sans-serif;
text-align: center !important;
font-size: 9px;
width: 80px;
box-shadow: 0px 6px 12px 0px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.2);
}
.dropdown-content-parent {
display: inline-block;
position: relative;
}
.dropdown-content a {
color: black;
padding: 8px 12px;
text-decoration: none;
display: block;
}
.dropdown-content a:hover {
background-color: #e6e6e6
}
.dropdown:hover .dropdown-content {
display: block;
position: absolute;
}
<div class="dropdown">
<button class="dropbtn">HOSTEL</button>
<button class="dropbtn">RESERVATION</button>
<button class="dropbtn">GALLERY</button>
<div class="dropdown-content-parent">
<button class="dropbtn">INFO</button>
<div class="dropdown-content">
EVENTS IN ZG
</div>
</div>
<button class="dropbtn">FIND US</button>
</div>
you can use bootstrap's navbar for it like this:
<nav class="navbar navbar-inverse">
<div class="container-fluid">
<div class="navbar-header">
<a class="navbar-brand" href="#">WebSiteName</a>
</div>
<ul class="nav navbar-nav">
<li class="active">Home</li>
<li class="dropdown"><a class="dropdown-toggle" data-toggle="dropdown" href="#">Page 1 <span class="caret"></span></a>
<ul class="dropdown-menu">
<li>Page 1-1</li>
<li>Page 1-2</li>
<li>Page 1-3</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>Page 2</li>
<li>Page 3</li>
</ul>
</div>
</nav>
<div class="container">

I have a main menu bar that has a drop down menu and that menu has a sub menu. How do I get the sub drop down menu to display to the left of "drop down 2" link in the first drop down menu? I would also like to align the top of the sub menu to the top of the "drop down 2" link. Right now it's appearing below and to the left of the link.

I want the position of my navigation to be fixed. But when I change the position to "fixed" in nav, it looks very weird.
Here are two examples:
Without fixed position: https://jsfiddle.net/Timowo/3nrvch3c/
<nav>
<ul>
<li class="category">Contact</li>
<li class="category">Work</li>
<li class="category active">Home</li>
<li class="logotext">Logo</li>
</ul>
</nav>
With fixed position: https://jsfiddle.net/Timowo/5aock5k1/
<nav style="position: fixed;">
<ul>
<li class="category">Contact</li>
<li class="category">Work</li>
<li class="category active">Home</li>
<li class="logotext">Logo</li>
</ul>
</nav>
What do I have to change so it's inline but also fixed?
Thanks!
With position:fixed the element will collapse to the width of the widest descendant..in the absence of a defined width.
Just set width:100%
