My Navigation is Floating All the way up to the right. It doesn't align with my H1, H2's @660px. Please Help.

This is what I have in. Thanks in advance everyone!

@media screen and (min-width: 660px) {

/********************************* Header *********************************/

nav { background: none; float: right; font-size: 1.125em; margin-right: 5%; text-align: right; width: 45%; }

#logo { float: left; margin-left: 5%; text-align: left; width: 45%; }

h1 { font-size: 1.5em; }

h2 { font-size: 0.825em; margin-bottom: 20px; }

header { border-bottom: 5px solid #599a68; margin-bottom: 60px; } }

Remove that float: right from your nav.

nav {
    background: none;
    float: right; /* <-- Either remove this or float:left; */
    font-size: 1.125em;
    margin-right: 5%;
    text-align: right;
    width: 45%;
}

Hi guys,

So i did two things.

  1. I deleted the float: right; and also tried using "left". It didn't work.

  2. I deleted the float and it completely dropped the navigation to the center of the page while viewing on the desktop.

any other thoughts?

thanks again.

Hi Nick! Could you please put your full code into a snippet on a sandbox environment such as codepen or jsfiddle and then post the link? I am not sure we will be able to efficiently help you further without knowing all the other things that might be affecting your layout.

Thanks!

I figured it out! I went back to my Main CSS and I saw that I put an incorrect semicolon after margin : / Thanks so much for the help! BTW. I sorta got confused when going about using codepen or jsfiddle.
