Bootstrap Navbar Issues

Does anyone know how to get a Bootstrap Menu created in Dreamweaver from appearing below my page content. I have tried adding a Z-Index property of 10 to my navbar elements but they still appear under the page content. Attached is a screenshot.

You are (mis)using the toggler as a dropdown. You should be using the real dropdown as per

Actually, I figured it out, Z-Index property was on wrong element, needs to be on the wrapper element. However, I have another question: Anyone know how to get the menu to appear & dissapear on rollover rather than mouse click. Right now the menu needs a click to get it to rollout & then another click to get it to roll back up, I'd like to just rollover it & have it roll out for my desktop version of the site.

www.logomatcentral.com is the URL

You're forgetting something basic & important.  Websites have to work on ALL devices.  The majority of users don't have a mouse.  They're on touch screens.

 

To that end, Bootstrap's mobile-first framework and responsive navbars work correctly out of the box without any interference from you. Trust the code as prescribed. Don't mess things up with desktop contrived rollovers. It's quite unnecessary and could  pose major usability issues for people. Test your work on actual mobile phones & tablets throughout development.

Happy Holidays!

[To avoid confusion, moderator merged this with original topic on Bootstrap Navbar.]

 

Does anyone know why a bootstrap menu would not rolldown from the top of the Menu Button. My menu items roll up instead of down, so when expanded the first menu item is located above the top of the screen on a mobile device.

Have you tested on real devices yet or is this just based on what you see in DW's Live view?

Yes, this is tested on various devices. Half of the menu rises above the screen.

To be honest, your navigation is unwieldy and complicated.  There's not enough real estate for everything.  Even on my desktop computer, I can see only 6 items.  The bottom half is truncated and scrolling doesn't help me.

Nancy, You're forgetting something basic & important: I am asking for technical assistance with a technical issue. I am not requesting opinions.

"I am asking for technical assistance..."

OK. For starters, take care of your code errors.  Remove fixed positioning from your <header>.
