Hello. I am trying to create a horizontal fixed menu with four list items. I'd like to place my logo in the center of the menu, so there're two list items on each side of it. I have created a space between the 2nd and 3rd list item, so there's room for the logo, but I can't get the logo to stay in the middle of the page whilst being on top of the navigation, when it has the position:fixed. (The point is, that the entire menu and logo should stay in the same place when scrolling)

Do you mean vertical centering, horizontal, or both? Vertical positioning sometimes needs a touch of JavaScript, did you consider it? Anyway, it would be good to have some sample of the layout you want, precisely.
