Avoid controlling the arrangement (parallel alignment)

Check out my fiddle here: http://jsfiddle.net/BFSH4/

In this fiddle, I'm facing two main issues:

  1. The h1 and h2 elements are not lining up vertically.
  2. The nav and content sections are not aligning horizontally.

I've tried adjusting margins and padding for the first issue, but with no luck...

And for the second issue, typical methods like floating and using inline-block haven't worked...

What am I missing here?

Eventually, I was able to float the header successfully. The problem was that hgroup is not a block element. However, even though it's working now, I'm thinking it might be better to use an actual image for the company name and slogan.

But I'm still struggling with the horizontal alignment issue.

I can't figure out why it's not working: http://jsfiddle.net/BFSH4/2/

No matter what I try, I just can't get them to sit side by side!

Solution to the initial issue (click here):

HTML

<div class="header">
    <span></span><img src="images/prototype.png" /><hgroup><h1>Prototype</h1><h2>SideBySide</h2></hgroup>
</div>

CSS

.header {
    height: 160px;
    border: 1px solid #8a2be2;
    /* text-align: center; */
}

.header span {
    height: 100%;
    vertical-align: middle;
    display: inline-block;
}

.header img {
    display: inline-block;
    height: 160px;
    float: left; /* added to position the image correctly */
}

.header hgroup {
    margin: 0;        
    vertical-align: middle;
    display: inline-block;
}

This method relies on the use of display: inline-block

Solution for the subsequent issue:

.nav {
    width: 229px;
    display: block;
    margin: 0 auto;
}
