Need help with code-nav bar etc.

**ntfredrickson** · 07-08-2011, 03:52 PM

Please help me to correct this! I am trying to make the logo appear on the left, aligned with "home" but something is going wrong and when I look at it in both Firefox and Safari, it is to the right of the nav bar.

My CSS looks like this:

Code:

body {
	font-family:Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
	background-image:url(images/bkgimage.gif);
	background-repeat:repeat-x;
	}

#dabox {
	display:block;
	margin-left:auto;
	margin-right:auto;
	margin-top: 0em;
	width:950px;
	font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
	}
	
#topnav {
	margin: -2em 0em 3em -30px;
	list-style: none;
	}

#topnav li {
	float: left;
	margin-top: 0px;
	}
	
#topnav li a {
	display: block;
	padding: 6px 15px;
	text-decoration: none;
	font-size:14px;
	font-weight: bold;
	color: #30422b;
	font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
	}

#logo {
	z-index:200;
	}

My HTML looks like this:

Code:

<body>

<div id="dabox">

<div>
<ul id="topnav">
        <li><a href="#">Home</a></li>
        <li><a href="pages/about_us/about_us.html">About Us</a></li>
        <li><a href="pages/industry_news.html">Industry Resorces</a></li>
        <li><a href="pages/investors.html">Investors</a></li>
    </ul>
</div>

<div id="logo">
<img src="images/logo.png" />
</div>

</div>
</body>

please help! let me know if i'm doing something terribly wrong. I never had any real CSS/HTML training.

Sorry for wasting anyone's time! I fixed this by adding this to the CSS:

position: absolute;
top: 50px;
