Hey there, I am a beginner in HTML & CSS and currently working on my first website. I'm facing an issue with my navigation bar causing a delay in the div below it when set to relative position. When I switch it to absolute positioning, the centering of the div is perfect but the nav bar disappears. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
