Unfixed Navigation Bar in front of image - html

Question

I have put an image on the top of my page, but I also want to insert a navigation bar on the top of the page (in front of the image). But the reality the navigation bar is above the image, I cant put them both on the same row, I can do it with make the navibar fixed top, but its really annoying when I scroll down. Is there any way to solve my problem?
(PS: Image is not a background!)
<nav class="navbar " role="navigation">
<div class="container-fluid">
<div class="collapse navbar-collapse navbar-right navbar-main-collapse">
<ul class="nav navbar-nav">
<li>
<a> Link </a>
</li>
<li>
<a> Link </a>
</li>
<li>
<a> Link </a>
</li>
<li>
<a> Link </a>
</li>
<li>
<a> Link </a>
</li>
</ul>
</div>
</div>
</nav>
<img src=" ">

Answer 1

This should work:
.navbar {
position: absolute;
top: 0;
left: 0;
}

You basically had the right idea: Pin the nav bar to the top of the page. But instead of using position: fixed, which pins the nav bar to a fixed position within the browser window, use position: absolute, which pins the nav bar to a fixed position within the page.
