Trying to fix nav menu of grou.ps site - html

Hello I am trying to fix the look of this site my original site was this
http://graydaddy.com
but know that I integrated it with the grou.ps community platform the nav menu gets messed up and the image gets moved down by a bit.
I have been looking at it for a while but cant seem to find the error especially because I did not modify at all the div that contains the nav menu
here is the modified
http://www.graydaddy.com
This is probably a dum mistake by my part but thanks for any assistance

I think I know what your problem is. Each navigation image is a different height. And because there are no styles applied to the table cells, the inconsistent image sizes are throwing off the spacing between the horizontal line rows and the image rows.
If it's possible, redo this navigation with an ordered list, and text as HTML text, not image text. Using images as navigation in the way that your site does, is very bad practice.
If it's not possible, re-create each image to be the same exact height.
*Edit: it just dawned on me, you probably used some sort of online GUI editor to create this navigation, if that's the case, there is not much I can help you with as I am not familiar with the Grou.PS. But you'll probably have to redo the navigation to be more precise
Thanks

Bootstrap - Unable to make the page responsive

I have created a website containing a mega menu. However, when I reduce the size of the page, the layout does not seem to be responsive and the elements seem to overflow.
I am unable to post the complete code, please assist. Below are the snippets of the code.
Full Size
After reducing size of page
I want to make the page responsive to any device. Where am I going wrong?
You should try the bootstraps column mechanism. I already find the part with tips for responsive design, but you should read it all. You just throughout the HTML classes define, how width you want the thing to be. Maybe, if you're able to put here a little bit from your code, it will be easier to help, but i know, that sometimes, it's just not posible. Anyway i hope, this will help

writing CSS for multi-level horizontal menus

I do a lot of work during the day and I program in quite a few languages so doing CSS work is a little tough because i don't specialize in it. I have run into an issue where wordpress no longer works for me so I have to do mysite on my own. can you guys point me to a web resource that will show me how to get a a look of a multi-level horiz. menu at the top of my homepage similar to the one found here?
https://www.cssscript.com/create-a-multi-level-drop-down-menu-with-pure-css/
I got that link from a similar thread here on S/O.
I copied all of the code there and put it in the appropriate CSS and HTML files, but I do not get the multi-leveledness. I only got a vertical menu on the left side without color. I'm a source coder, and generally automate things and I'm horrible at designing anything. I draw stick people and that's as far as my artistic talent goes. so CSS falls into that same boat. thanks!
If you really only got a vertical menu on the left side without color, that sounds like none of the CSS styles are actually taking effect. And since none of the elements have classes from what I can see, it sounds like your CSS isn't actually loading or being applied to the DOM. How have you included the CSS rules into your website? Before trying to use a different demo, try to get this specific one working by looking at your HTML structure and figuring out how to get the styles to grab onto the right elements...

Chrome Resizing Navigation Menus

So my problem is that for some reason on one page of a website I've been fiddling with, the two navigation bars that I have (Top and Sidebar Navigation) are for no apparent reason scaled down in the Google Chrome browser, their behavior is entirely normal in both iE and Firefox. The bar's remain completely functional, but are simply scaled down perhaps to 66% of the intended size.
Here is the code for the page in question: http://pastebin.com/uvrPR1JW
Here is the code for a similar, but functioning page for reference: http://pastebin.com/5dAMREfC
They're running off the same style sheet so the issue is likely in the HTML, however the style sheet is linked in the comment section for reference. If anyone spots any reason why it would be doing anything like this it'd be great to know. And I apologize for the messy code, as I said I'm just playing around with it.
Update:
You may notice that my code includes at least one flexbox, here is question posted by another user that may be related but I can't make heads or tails of it: Chrome shrinks figure elements as they are added to a flexbox
Update: Doesn't seem to be a problem with the flexbox, the issue still exists even when I remove all content except the top header.
I'd say it's the setup of your navbar, how you have an image and you just change the position of it on hover. Chrome has a weird feature where it moves things around when there is images so I would suggest looking up how to make a proper navigation bar (It's pretty easy).

CSS Layout Ajustment

I´ve recently started to program all my layouts in tableless CSS, but still prefering the old tables style. Much faster. Anyway, I´m stuck in this layout that is almoust finished, but I need help to one minor detais, which I can´t manage to fix.
Here is the test address:
http://www.syncsystem.com.br/
As you can see, the design and background are almoust complete. Later I´m gonna put the rest of the stuff in, like links and so on. The problem is at the bottom. The ideia behind this is that the background texture stay fixed, as is is. But there´s a white space at the bottom which I can´t get rid of...can anyone help or give a hint?
Thanks,
I'm not sure if that's what you are talking about, but the footer's background image itself has some space in it below the black part.
And the footer has the same height as it's background image, so the whole image is being shown.
Next time use some web development tool such as Firebug, or use a native one pressing F12 in Firefox or Chrome. It will help you quickly analyze the page element's properties

Page structure breaks when zooming out

Im wondering if anyone else has come across this problem when designing websites. Basically every time I zoom far out from my webpage the structure breaks and images and containers jump in to other parts of the page.
I have tried my very best to avoid this by measuring every div to the last pixel but this issue occurs, is there any tips for sorting this problem out.
Sorry that I cannot show an example, everything is on my localhost.
For a better website which doesnot breaks on zooming , please go through the following links.

XHTML

Grail
Also here is the Blueprint Tests: grid.css. Check that link by zooming!!!
Cheers.
use html table tag right after your body tag when you put your body content in a table the content take automatically the width and height of their cells so when zooming it should not be a problem
