Move li to the right in menu - html

I have a menu, and I would like to have the last 3 options (some images for Facebook/Twiter/Gmail) to be aligned to the right. So far I tried:
li:last-child { float:right;}- combine the 3 images in one to have the last option to the right, but not even so works
float: right; - the same result as above
text-align: right; - no change

Flexbox can do that:

I know its just a small thing I missed, would appreciate some guidance on this thank you so much again.
You have a missing ul and li before the second last closing element.
Add d-flex on the ul after navbar-fixed-top element <div class="nav navbar-fixed-top"> <ul class="d-flex">

Your HTML structure is incorrect (closing tags missing) and your CSS contains an error for ul li. Corrected below.

Dropdown menu floating left

I made a menu, and I want the dropdown to go centered underneath the 'Fruitsoorten' tab. But now all three of the items are next to each other.
Does anyone know how to fix this? Thanks in advance.
nav {
float: right;
border-radius: 15px;
margin-right: 15%;
}
nav ul {
list-style-type: none;
margin-top: 55px;
background-color: black;
}
nav li {
display: inline-block;
position: relative;
padding: 10px;
}
nav li ul {
display: none;
}
nav li li {
display:
}
nav li:hover ul {
display: block;
}
nav a {
text-decoration: none;
color: white;
font-size: 20px;
}
nav li:hover {
background-color: gray;
}
<nav>
<ul>
<li>Home</li>
<li>
Fruitsoorten
<ul>
<li>Kersen</li>
<li>Appels</li>
<li>Pruimen</li>
</ul>
<li>
<li>Team</li>
<li>Agenda</li>
<li>Foto's</li>
<li>Vacatures</li>
<li>Contact</li>
</ul>
</nav>
You can also try this styles.
http://codepen.io/nehemc/pen/LkyQvq
nav {
float: right;
border-radius: 15px;
margin-right: 15%;
}
nav ul {
list-style-type: none;
margin-top: 55px;
background-color: black;
}
nav li {
display: inline-block;
position: relative;
}
nav a {
text-decoration: none;
color: white;
font-size: 20px;
padding: 10px;
display:block;
}
nav ul ul {
display: none;
position: absolute;
z-index: 999;
left: 0;
margin-top: 0;
}
nav li:hover ul {
display: block;
}
nav li:hover {
background-color: gray;
}
Add following code to reflect
nav ul { margin-top: 0; }
nav li ul {
display: none;
position: absolute;
left: 0;
z-index: 9;
}
Also clear your HTML code with proper closing of </li>
To affect your inline-block styling to main ul only,
Do this:
nav>ul>li {
display: inline-block;
position: relative;
padding: 10px;
}
instead of
nav li { display: inline-block; position: relative; padding: 10px; }
nav {
float: right;
border-radius: 15px;
margin-right: 15%;
}
nav ul {
list-style-type: none;
margin-top: 55px;
background-color: black;
}
nav>ul>li {
display: inline-block;
position: relative;
padding: 10px;
}
nav li ul {
display: none;
}
nav li li {
display:
}
nav li:hover ul {
display: block;
}
nav a {
text-decoration: none;
color: white;
font-size: 20px;
}
nav li:hover {
background-color: gray;
}

</li>
<li>Agenda
</li>
<li>Foto's
</li>
<li>Vacatures
</li>
<li>Contact
</li>

is that what you want?

Match text height with image height in menu

I have a menu, for which I put at the end 3 images, measuring 30x30 px each. After the images being inserted, it appeared a space between the bottom line of the menu and only the text. For the image there is no space between the bottom of the menu and the images. What I would like now to do, would be to have the text having the exact size (I managed to fix this space by increasing font size, but this is not a solution for me) as now and get rid of that space. Again, the space is only below the text and not the images. *Check with full-screen the menu.

The simplest would be to set the same height to your texts as you have on your images

Adjusting css file for new html menu

this might be a bit complicated but I really need some help here..
I made a HTML menu and a css file for it. This was for a desktop version of my website.
I was in need of a mobile menu and due to my low skills of html and css, I asked a friend to make a mobile css file for the menu.
He ended up changing a little bit of code of the original HTML menu, this means that the mobile version is working, but I have to update my original css file for desktop a bit.
That's where the problem is, I just can't get it done, I can't find the right tag to update the file.

So what I need now is some help to adjust the desktop css file to the new html menu, I can't figure it out where to start and what I should change.
You might want to use media queries to apply a different set of CSS for mobile and desktop. You could wrap your original css like this, to only apply the desktop CSS when the width is bigger than 600px.
#media (min-width: 600px) {
body {
font-family: Raleway;
margin: 0;
}
main {
margin: 0 auto;
width: 1280px;
}
/*Menu*/
ul.menu {
margin-bottom: 50px;
}
label.show-menu {
display: none;
}
input.show-menu {
display: none;
}
a:visited {
border: none;
color: black;
text-decoration: none;
}
ul.menu > ul {
margin-left: 80px;
border: none;
}
ul.menu > ul li
{
display: inline-block;
list-style-type: none;
margin: 0;
margin-left: 80px;
}
ul.menu > ul {
position: relative;
}
ul.menu > ul li {
font-size: 30px;
min-height: 1px;
line-height: 1.3em;
padding: 10px;
}
ul.menu > ul ul {
visibility: hidden;
position: absolute;
top: 100%;
left: 0;
}
ul.menu > ul ul li {
float: none;
font-size: 20px;
margin: 30px;
}
ul.menu > ul li:hover {
border-bottom: 1px solid black;
}
ul.menu > ul li:hover > ul {
visibility: visible;
}
ul.menu ul > li > ul > li {
margin: 0 10px 0 0;
position: relative;
padding: 0;
float: left;
}
ul.menu ul > li > ul > li > a {
padding: 10px 20px 10px 10px;
display: block;
}
#Logo {
float: left;
display: inline-block;
position: absolute;
width: 56px;
height: 79px;
}
}

<nav> element transparent without any previous opacity/transparency adjustments HTML/CSS

I have noticed my nav bar is transparent and I would like it to not be. I have no previous opacity/transparency set that would cause it to be inheriting the property. I would like to make my nav bar non transparent.
Here is the CSS:
nav {
margin: 20px auto;
text-align: center;
}
nav ul ul {
display: none;
}
nav ul li:hover > ul {
display: block;
}
nav ul {
font-size: 25px;
background: white;
padding: 0px;
border-radius: 10px;
border-style: solid;
list-style: none;
position: relative;
display: inline-table;
}
nav ul:after {
content: "";
clear: both;
display: block;
}
nav ul li {
float: left;
}
nav ul li:hover {
background: black;
}
nav ul li:hover a {
opacity: 1;
color: white;
}
nav ul li a {
display: block;
padding: 15px 20px;
color: black;
text-decoration: none;
}
nav ul ul {
background: #000000;
border-radius: 0px 0px 10px 10px;
padding: 0;
position: absolute;
top: 100%;
}
nav ul ul li {
float: none;
}
nav ul ul li a {
padding: 15px 20px;
}
nav ul ul li a:hover {
background: #2E2E2E;
border-radius: 10px;
}
#welcome_paragraph {
position: relative;
top: 50px;
width: 500px;
margin: auto;
}
Here is the corresponding HTML:
<nav>
<ul>
<li>Information
<ul>
<li>Getting Started?</li>
<li>About Us</li>

Updated CSS of yours
nav ul li:hover {
background: black;
position:relative;
z-index:1;
}
nav ul li:hover a {
color: white;
position:relative;
z-index:1;
}
Updated Fiddle
Have you tried;
nav {
background: white;
}
Elements are transparent unless you set a background on them or its inherited.
EDIT: If this doesn't help set up a fiddle for us jsfiddle.net.
In your css
nav ul {
font-size: 25px;
background: white;
padding: 0px;
border-radius: 10px;
border-style: solid;
list-style: none;
position: relative;
display: inline-table;
}
background is white.
If you change background to other colour may be your problem will go off. Hope it will help
Cheers !!
