The navbar is in a fixed position, so when I click on a navbar link the page scroll down to the refered content. But the problem is that when I do so the navbar is positioned just where the content should be, covering it.

Is there a way to make the navbar links scroll down just a bit less so that I can get the expected effect? or a more effective solution?

• javascript
• html
• css

• By the way, you have a few errors with the closing tags in your code, namely </l> instead of </li> on the "Projectos" link, </div instead of </div> at the end, and forgetting to close your <h3> and <h2> for the Technical Documentation Page. – Nat Riddle Commented Jun 4, 2021 at 14:50

Since the browser is doing what it is told to do properly (scrolling to the anchor's position), you have to do a little "hack" to get something like this to work. Here's the basic idea:

• Create a container element for both a title and an (unseen) anchor
• Create an element for the title, and put it in the container
• Create an element for the anchor, and put it in the container
• Use absolute positioning to move the anchor the appropriate amount up (generally something like FIXED_HEADER_HEIGHT + EXTRA_PADDING)

Here's a quick example:

.container {
  position: relative;
}

.anchor {
  position: absolute;
  top: -65px; /* given the fixed header is 50px tall, and you want 15px padding */
  left: 0px;
}

And the HTML:

<div class="container">
  <h2 class="title">Section Title</h2>
  <a class="anchor" name="target"></a>
</div>

Then, any link to #target will go to a location 65px above .title.

I just had the same issue and solved it using scroll-margin-top CSS property on the anchor link element

.anchor {       
     scroll-margin-top: 70px; // 70px is the offset value
  }

<a href="#anchor" class="anchor">Hyperlink</a>
