I have a certain Header with my Logo and title. Just to the right of the Title Mobility group I want to create a nav bar that touches the bottom of the header with different tabs all the way to the right of the header. Messing around I was able to create something, but I can't seem to position it correctly.

I just can't figure out how to add this navigation bar to my header div.

Update
Just wanted to say Thank you all for your help.
Adapting your current method to a more html5 approach, you can use header and nav tags do better markup your document. Absolute positioning also gives you better control over your elements. You would set the header to a relative position, and the nav to absolute, and offset it by the height of your header.
nav {
position: absolute;
top: 100px;
left: 0;
right: 0;
bottom: 0;
min-width: 800px;
text-align: left;
height: 20px;
padding: 10px 20px;
}
Here is your updated fiddle
And here is an update with the nav to the right, a bit messy though:

Not 100% sure if this is how you want it since your request wasn't very clear, but here's what I made.

I was wondering if anyone could help me with an issue I'm having. I wanted the text "Liam's Digital Portfolio" to be in the centre of the webpage at the top in line with the navigation bar text. In addition, I then wanted the navigation bar to be on the far right hand corner as shown within the codepen link http://codepen.io/ldocherty1/pen/qRowVK.
I have only started programming and this is my second day and really want to improve, apologies if the code is not in the correct structure.
Below is my HTML code, within the codepen is my CSS if needed.
<div id="Navagationbar">
<ul>
<li><b>HomePage</b></li>
<li><b>Portfolio</b></li>
<li><b>Contact Us</b></li>
<li><b><center>Liam's Digital Portfolio<center></b></li>
</ul>
</div>
</body>
</html>
Thanks,
Liam.
I wish you all the best with your coding journey :) I will give you an easy solution to get the desired effect. First off, cut the padding-top from the body in the css:
padding-top: 180px;
Now from your html, remove
<li><b><center>Liam's Digital Portfolio<center></b></li>
Since this is your page title, it is standard practice to have it inside of h1 tags. Then we can center it with simple css. The html will look like this:
<h1 class="title">Liam's Digital Portfolio</h1>
<div id="Navagationbar">
<ul>
<li><b>HomePage</b></li>
<li><b>Portfolio</b></li>
<li><b>Contact Us</b></li>
</ul>
</div>
And now we can simply add this to the css
.title{text-align:center;}
With the padding-top removed and this added, the title will be in the center of the page inline with the navigation bar. I see you have a lot of issues with your css so I suggest you go through a good tutorial, like this one from w3schools http://www.w3schools.com/css/ . I hope this helps, and good luck!
Make the HTML changes as below
<ul>
<li><b>HomePage</b></li>
<li><b>Portfolio</b></li>
<li><b>Contact Us</b></li>
<li style="position:absolute;right:45%"><b>Liam's Digital Portfolio</b></li>
</ul>

I'm trying to make a navigation bar for my website, but the 'info' button will not stay inside the parent. Here is my HTML:
<div id="header">
<div id="homeB">
HOME
</div>
<div id="infoB">
INFO
</div>
</div>
<div id="main"></div>
And my CSS:
#header {
height:11%;
width:70%;
background:violet;
margin-left:15%;
}
#main {
height:100%;
width:70%;
background:blue;
margin-top:1%;
margin-left:15%;
}
ul {
list-style-type: none;
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
display:inline-block;
}
#homeB {
width:20%;
height:100%;
background:red;
}
#homeBTEXT {
display:block;
font-size:250%;
text-align:center;
text-decoration:none;
font-family:Impact, charcoal, sans-serif;
color:blue;
}
#infoB {
width:20%;
height:50px;
background:red;
float:right;
left:64.2%;
}
#infoBTEXT {
display:block;
font-size:250%;
text-align:center;
text-decoration:none;
font-family:Impact, charcoal, sans-serif;
color:blue;
}
Could someone clear up why this is not working?
Thanks, I'm not great at a lot of HTML and CSS elements, so any extra help would be appreciated too :)
Give float: left; to the #homeBTEXT and also clear the #header!
#homeBTEXT {
display:block;
font-size:250%;
text-align:center;
text-decoration:none;
font-family:Impact, charcoal, sans-serif;
color:blue;
float:left;
}
#header {overflow: hidden;}

I am trying to create a fixed horizontal navigation that stretches to the browser's width.The problem I am having is that the links in the navigation bar move when i resize the browser window. How can I make it so that when you resize the web browser, the links(Home, Services...) stay fixed to the right and vertically in-line with the #content.?
Here is my html:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd">
<html lang="en">
<head>
</head>
<body>
<!--Navigation-->
<div id="fixed_bar">
<div id="navigation">
<ul>
<li>Home</li>
<li>Services</li>
<li>About</li>
<li>Contact</li>
</ul>
</div>
</div>
<!--Content-->
<div id="content">
<!--Content-->
</div>
</body>
</html>
And my CSS:
body {
background-color:yellow;
color:black;
width:100%;
padding:0;
margin-left:auto;
margin-right:auto;
font-size:16px;
font-family:"Sans-Serif", Helvetica, Arial;
}
/*Navigation*/
#navigation {
background-color:green;
color:black;
width:100%;
height:60px;
margin:0;
padding:0;
position:fixed;
top:0;
z-index:99;
}
#navigation ul {
list-style:none;
display:inline-block;
margin:0;
padding:0;
float:right;
overflow:hidden;
}
#navigation ul li{
padding:10px;
float:left;
clear:right;
}
#navigation ul li a{
background-color:inherit;
color:black;
vertical-align:middle;
text-decoration:none;
text-transform:uppercase;
font-size:15px;
font-family:"Lato", sans-serif;
letter-spacing:1px;
line-height:40px;
clear:both;
}
/*Content*/
#content {
padding-top:50px;
margin:auto;
width:900px;
color:black;
background-color:white;
}
I have been trying to solve this for hours, help would be much appreciated
You can apply your actual #navigation CSS rules to your #fixed_bar div and give #navigation the same width of the content (900px), let the browser calculate the margins with automatic margins and align the text to the right, so the ul will be at the right of #navigation while you keep the background, etc in #fixed_bar.
See it here: http://jsbin.com/bibulewa/1
And this is the CSS I've modified:
#fixed_bar {
background-color:green;
color:black;
width:100%;
height:60px;
margin:0;
padding:0;
position:fixed;
top:0;
z-index:99;
}
#navigation {
width: 900px;
text-align: right;
margin: auto;
}
Not sure if this is what you're looking for
I gave the ul an absolute position and align to the right:2%.
A top margin of 5px.
Remove the float and display the list as inline-block
Here's a jsfiddle - http://jsfiddle.net/rezasan/kE7LK/
/*Navigation*/
#navigation {
background-color:green;
color:black;
width:100%;
height:60px;
margin:0;
padding:0;
position:fixed;
top:0;
z-index:99;
}
#navigation ul {
list-style:none;
position:absolute;
right:2%;
display:inline-block;
margin:5px;
padding:0;
overflow:hidden;
width:60%;
text-align:right;
}
#navigation ul li{
padding:5px;
display:inline-block;
}
#navigation ul li a{
background-color:inherit;
color:black;
vertical-align:middle;
text-decoration:none;
text-transform:uppercase;
font-size:15px;
font-family:"Lato", sans-serif;
letter-spacing:1px;
line-height:3px;
clear:both;
}
set navigation styling:
left:0;
right:0;
I took a break after doing a little bit and everything is fine. I come back to see my header has a gap between the top of the page and itself. I don't know why, I must of not saved or something, but I can't figure out what's wrong...

Your issue is margin-top on the #logo.
One solution is to add that top 20px spacing as padding on the #header rather than a margin on the #logo.
http://jsfiddle.net/JRPwr/
/*-- HEADER --*/
#header {
position:relative;
top:0px;
width:100%;
background-color:#2C2E31;

padding-top:20px;
}

}
#nav ul li {

Alternate solutions are mentioned in the following StackOverflow question:
Margin on child element moves parent element
In img#logo, use margin-top: 0px;
This is kinda embarrasing for me, since ive been working with CSS for such a long time for a living, that i would be considered an expert.
Yet! Experts also learn new things daily.
Well, my problem is, that this sample code with a full stretched Bg image is working fantastic in both Chrome and FF, it should work in IE too (atleast IE8) But i just cant get it to work, the image shows but the text wraps underneat the image like if the content box was not set to relative positioning.
I hope you can help me out.

Well first of all why would you use <img/> to define the page background pattern.
It is more suitable to define this kind of background directly in css.
e.g.:
body {
background: url(img/bg.jpg) 0 0 no-repeat;
...
}
