I'm having some issues with my header. There are two images. One a background tile that is repeated on the x axis. A logo image that is centered and navigation buttons two on the left and right of it. When I positioned the logo in the center, the nav links to the right of the logo lost functionality. No hovering or linking. Why would this happen? How do I fix it?
I am new to this, so please go gentle if I asked a question that has been answer thousands of times before. I googled my issue and cannot figure out what to do. Hopefully, someone here can help me.
Here is a link to see the problem and the code.

Solución
You're #pageHeader div waz set to width: 100%; which was covering your links. Giving it a width fixes this:
#pageHeader:after {
content: '';
display: block;
position: absolute;
width: 120px;
height: 100%;
left: 425px;
top: 0;
background: url('http://s18.postimg.org/5ktpz4rid/logo.png') 0 0 no-repeat scroll;
}

It looks like the logo is added via an :after class with a width of 100%. Since it's an :after class it will display on a higher z-index than the rest of the element (and thus cover up your other links).
If you change your CSS entry for the logo to below it should fix your issue:
#pageHeader:after {
content: '';
display: block;
position: absolute;
width: 120px;
height: 120px;
left: 425px;
top: 0;
background: url('http://s18.postimg.org/5ktpz4rid/logo.png') 0 0 no-repeat scroll;
}
Try removing position: relative; from the body rule.
