Navigation bar not working properly - html

When I put my cursor right on top of the link text, the link is not clickable, but if I put my cursor a little bit below the text, it becomes clickable. I'm learning right now so please explain to me why it's doing that and how to fix it.

It's because your <h1> is a block-level element, which will lay over the menu elements. If you give it display: inline-block, it will work as supposed.
A block-level element always starts on a new line and takes up the
full width available (stretches out to the left and right as far as it
can).
See my example below.
* {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
}
header {
width: 1024px;
margin: 0 auto;
background-color: #81D4FA;

The problem is occurring because of the interaction between some of your styles. You're floating the nav ul element to the right, but you're also setting the nav ul li display to inline-block which is also doing an implicit float (try replacing it with float: left and you'll see the same behavior).
If you set the position:relative on your nav ul, it willforce the elements to float correctly within the ul container.
nav ul{
float: right;
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
position:relative; /*ADD THIS*/

Navigation Drop Down Covers Hero Image

My drop down navigation in the 1st and 2nd media queries just cover the hero image instead of pushing the hero image down, also the width of the drop down is suspiciously small. I have a working example on a different website I made, but I can't figure the difference that causes it to break on this one. I hope someone knows what is causing this and/or how to fix it. Here is the code:

I guess The problem is caused by position : absolute
try to delete position : absolute or add position :relativeto your nav .
Tell me what happens
Update : the problem was caused by #header{ position : absolute ; }
Removing it solved the problem.

Nav bar is hanging over header and not sure why?

I'm working on a website for practice and I'm having an issue where my nav bar is hanging over the header. I've tried adjusting the margin and that isn't working. I've tried changing the display and position, which end up just breaking the layout. My main goal is to have the navigation cleanly nestled in the bottom right of the header, but I'm not sure how to fix it. Here is the code I've typed:
Place the code into code snippets.
body {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
text-align: center;
}
ul,
li {
float: left;
list-style-type: none;
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
overflow: hidden;
}
li a {
padding: 14px 16px;
background-color: green;
display: block;
color: white;
text-decoration: none;
}
li a:hover {
background-color: blue;
}
header {
background-color: green;
width: 100%;
height: 200px;
position: fixed;
z-index: 100;
top: 0;
border-bottom: 3px black solid;
}
.nav {
display: inline;
float: right;
margin-bottom: 10px;
margin-right: 10px;
margin-top: 175px;
position: relative;
}
<!DOCTYPE html>
<head>
<title>Demo</title>
</head>
<header>
<div class="nav">
<ul>
<li><a>Menu</a></li>
<li><a>Contact</a></li>

</ul>
</div>
</header>
The simplest solution is to replace your .nav class with:
.nav {
bottom: 0;
right: 0;
position: absolute;
}
I assume this is more or less what you were trying to achieve with your margins.
An absolutely positioned element will be placed relative to the nearest positioned parent element (i.e. one with relative, absolute, fixed or sticky position). By default that is the highest level block, but since your header has position: fixed it is placed relative to that. The bottom and right values indicate the amount of offset from that block's respective edges.
The height of the header is 200px, but you left margin-top: 175px for the nav. For the nav to start where the header is ending, you need at least 200px as margin-top.
Please run the code snippet to check if this is the desired change. I have changed the position from relative to absolute and added bottom: 0 and right: 0 for class .nav.
body {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
text-align: center;
}
ul,
li {
float: left;
list-style-type: none;
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
overflow: hidden;
}
li a {
padding: 14px 16px;
background-color: green;
display: block;
color: white;
text-decoration: none;
}
li a:hover {
background-color: blue;
}
header {
background-color: green;
width: 100%;
height: 200px;
position: fixed;
z-index: 100;
top: 0;
border-bottom: 3px black solid;
}
.nav {
display: inline;
float: right;
margin-bottom: 10px;
margin-right: 10px;
margin-top: 175px;
bottom: 0;
right: 0;
position: absolute;
}

There might be other ways, but using flex layout will solve your problem. 1st add display:flex in your header.
Then .nav with the following:
{
display: flex;
flex: 1;
align-self: flex-end;
justify-content: flex-end;
}
See the final result:
body {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
text-align: center;
}
ul,
li {
float: left;
list-style-type: none;
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
overflow: hidden;
}
li a {
padding: 14px 16px;
background-color: green;
display: block;
color: white;
text-decoration: none;
}
li a:hover {
background-color: blue;
}
header {
background-color: green;
width: 100%;
height: 200px;
position: fixed;
z-index: 100;
top: 0;
border-bottom: 3px black solid;
display: flex;
}
.nav {
display: flex;
flex: 1;
align-self: flex-end;
justify-content: flex-end;
}

How do I make my navbar responsive to a tablet?

So, I've started work on a navbar and it's kinda my first time doing this since it's a school project. On PC, my navbar look pretty good, the problem is with how the navbar looks on a tablet. Normally, this wouldn't be a problem, but my school is mostly tablet-centric, so I wanna make it iPad-friendly.

Here's what it looks like normally:
And here's what it looks like on an iPad:
Like I said, I'm kind of new to this kinda thing. Any advice on how to do this would be greatly appreciated, thanks!

use this tag in section,it will work.
use of viewport : The viewport varies with the device, and will be smaller on a mobile phone than on a computer screen.
Try any of these..

Problems with navbar and image centering

As part of a school project I am trying to create my first webpage. I am however stuck on this issue where my navigation bar moves down the page when I place a logo in the top bar and center it. I wonder if anyone could help?
JS Fiddle: https://jsfiddle.net/3k65c20u/
Here is my code:
#header {
height: 200px;
width: 100%;
background-color: black;
}
#top-bar {
background-repeat: repeat-x;
position: absolute;
left: 0;
width: 100%;
height: 200px;
padding: 0px;
margin: 0px;
}
//Top Navigation Bar//
.navigation-bar {
background-color: black;
position: absolute;
left: 0;
top: 0;
width: 100%;
height: 250px;
}
img.center {
display: block;
margin-left: auto;
margin-right: auto;
}
.navigation-bar ul {
padding: 210px;
margin: 0px;
text-align: center;
}
.navigation-bar li {
list-style-type: none;
padding: 8px;
height: 24px;
margin-top: 30px;
margin-bottom: 4px;
display: inline;
}
.navigation-bar li a {
color: gray;
background-color: black;
font-size: 13px;
text-transform: uppercase;
font-family: "Trebuchet MS", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
text-decoration: none;
box-shadow: 0px;
border-radius: 3px;
padding-right: 1em;
padding-left: 1em;
line-height: 2em;
margin-right: 16px;
}
.navigation-bar li:first-child {
margin-left: 20px;
border: #C00;
}

not sure what design you want achieve, but i just changed the navigation bar position to relative, and the image to absolute, so... set left to 50% and using the CSS property transform: translateX(-50%); the image is finally centered

Remove the padding: 210px at the .navigation-bar ul rule!
change css in ul to, removing padding:210px;
.navigation-bar ul {
margin: 0px;
text-align:center;
}

The hover for my buttons and links won’t work

I’m creating this website and I made this nav bar. It had dummy links in the anchor tags and I had a hover property on my buttons. All of this was working properly. I had made a few changes to the code and now none of it works. I cannot figure out where I went wrong. I was editing properties and things just stopped working.
