    When I designed my theme I had the navigation positioned right where it needed to be. Now it is suddenly not right. On my screen it is sitting over top of the logo instead of to the right of the logo. (hope that makes sense)

    You can see it here: http://exhaustedmommy.com

    Is it just on my screen or is the navigation not positioned right for everyone else also? If so, does anyone have an idea as to why it suddenly moved?

    I know I can change the positioning of the menus with this code

    #nav {
    	clear: both;
    	color: #6db9ae;
    	margin: 0 0 10px;
    	text-transform: uppercase;
    	width: 665px;
    	position:absolute;
    	top:200px;
    	left:485px;
    }

    But isn't there a way to position it in a specific spot no matter the resolution size or browser window size. Because right now it moves depending on those which throws it off of where it needs to be.

    I think I resolved this. And just in case anybody else has the same problem in the future and comes across this thread, here is my solution. (It was very simple, I just needed to take a break from code for a minute and come back to it)

    I took the "left:485px" out because this was making it stay 485px from the left side of the screen, not the container instead of positioning with the container. And then adjusted the margin instead. See below...

    Here is the code before:

    #nav {
    	clear: both;
    	color: #6db9ae;
    	margin: 0 0 10px;
    	text-transform: uppercase;
    	width: 665px;
    	position:absolute;
    	top:200px;
    	left:485px;
    }

    Here is the code afterwards:

    #nav {
    	clear: both;
    	color: #6db9ae;
    	margin: 0px 400px 10px;
    	text-transform: uppercase;
    	width: 665px;
    	position: absolute;
    	top:175px;
    }
