Tell us what’s happening:

I’m trying to format the #main-doc and the nav bar. I’ve noticed that when I increase the window size, the #main-doc content shifts to the left and eventually overflows into the navbar area. I added a z-index to the navbar, so the navbar ends up covering the #main-doc content when the window is enlarged. Is there a way to fix this?

Your code so far
