While experimenting with the fixed position property to maintain a constantly positioned nav bar on mobile, I encountered some challenges during the trial and error process. However, by utilizing margin top and translation functions, I was able to successfully fix the issue and achieve a clean appearance.
Are there alternative methods to accomplish this?
In my understanding, this implies that a page (where the CSS is applied) follows a certain rule-set making it always appear as the first box. Is this interpretation accurate, or am I overlooking something about this property and its functionality?
Edit: As requested, I have included my updated codes below.
.leftNav{
top: 0%;
transform: translateX(0%);
position: fixed;
left: 0;
width: 50%;
height: 80px;
background: linear-gradient(
to left,
rgba(2, 2, 2, 0.95),
rgba(21, 22, 22, 0.95)
);
margin-bottom: 50px;
}
This snippet of code represents my CSS adjustments. I incorporated TranslateX to track where I made positional changes.
<div class="leftNav">
<div class="logo">
<a href="#"> <img src="./facebook.png" alt="just-a-logo"></a>
</div>
</div>
In these HTML lines, I divided the navigation into two sections – one for the logo and potential additional inputs in the future, and the other for the Hamburger menu.
.introPage{
margin-top: 80px;
height: 91.7vh;
background: rgb(233, 227, 224);
}
To ensure the nav-bar remains anchored at the top, this final snippet adjusts the positioning for the fixed element.
