There are several potential reasons why your top navigation may be extending too far down on your Glossary page in Webflow. Here are some possible causes and their corresponding solutions:

  1. Incorrect class or positioning: Check if you have applied the correct class to your top navigation element. Ensure that the positioning (relative, absolute, fixed) is set appropriately for it to display correctly on the page.

  2. Overflow or height settings: Verify that your Glossary page does not have any overflow or height settings that are conflicting with the top navigation. If there are any conflicting parameters, adjust them accordingly to prevent any unwanted extensions.

  3. Content or padding: Examine the content within your Glossary page. A large amount of content or excessive padding on the page may push the top navigation down. Consider decreasing the content size or adjusting the padding to fit the navigation within the desired space.

  4. Custom code conflicts: If you have added any custom code to your Glossary page, it's possible that there might be a conflict that is affecting the placement of the top navigation. Review and troubleshoot any custom code to ensure it does not interfere with the navigation's positioning.

  5. Inheritance or cascading styles: Analyze the styling of your Glossary page, including any parent or child elements that may be affecting the positioning of the top navigation. Look for any inherited or cascading styles that might unintentionally impact the navigation's display.

  6. Viewport settings: Check the viewport settings within your Glossary page. If the viewport is not correctly defined, it may cause the page to display incorrectly, including the positioning of the top navigation. Make sure the viewport is set appropriately for optimal rendering.

By considering these potential causes and implementing the corresponding solutions, you should be able to resolve the issue of your top navigation extending too far down on your Glossary page in Webflow.
