I'm having a huge brain fart when trying to center my menu.
I would sincerely appreciate any help someone can offer me.
My menu continues to align on the left but it needs to be centered.
Whenever I put a container around it, I lose my responsive functionality.
Here is my HTML
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html;charset=utf-8" />
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1, shrink-to-fit=no">
<link href="./style.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
<script>
/* Toggle between adding and removing the "responsive" class to topnav when the user clicks on the icon */
function myFunction() {
var x = document.getElementById("myTopnav");
if (x.className === "topnav") {
x.className += " responsive";
} else {
x.className = "topnav";
}
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<div id="header">
<div class="logo"><img src="./images/logo.png"></div>
<div class="topnav" id="myTopnav">

The menu keeps going to the left (probably the float:left) but I just can't get this to work.
Anyone able to be my hero for the day, please?
