Hi, I'm trying to set up a navigation bar in the middle at the top of the page. I've tried text alignment, aligning the items to the center, but I've had no luck so far, Does anyone know how to align this navigation menu in the middle of the page?

/* Clearfix */

.clearfix:before,
.clearfix:after {
  content: " ";
  display: table;
}

.clearfix:after {
  clear: both;
}

.clearfix {
  *zoom: 1;
}


/* Basic Styles */

body {
  background-color: #ece8e5;
}

nav {
  height: 40px;
  width: 20%;
  background: #da6548;
  font-size: 11pt;
  font-family: 'PT Sans', Arial, sans-serif;
  font-weight: bold;
  position: relative;
  text-align: center;
  border-bottom: 2px solid #da6548;
}

nav ul {
  padding: 0;
  margin: 0 auto;
  width: 5 px;
  height: 40px;
  align-items: center;
}

nav li {
  /* display: inline; */
  margin: 0 auto;
  align-items: center;
  display: inline-block
}

nav a {
  color: #fff;
  display: inline-block;
  width: 100px;
  text-align: center;
  text-decoration: none;
  line-height: 40px;
  text-shadow: 1px 1px 0px #283744;
}

nav li a {
  border-right: 1px solid #576979;
  box-sizing: border-box;
  -moz-box-sizing: border-box;
  -webkit-box-sizing: border-box;
}

nav li:last-child a {
  border-right: 0;
}

nav a:hover,
nav a:active {
  background-color: #8c99a4;
}

nav a#pull {
  display: none;
}

I suggest you drop "float" and use flex, it's simple, powerful and easy to handle.

CSS

nav {
    display: flex;
    align-items: center;
    height: 75px;
    background: #3c7eca;
    gap: 5px;
    padding: 5px;
}
nav a {
    color: white;
    padding: 10px 40px;
    background: #d86649;
    text-decoration: none;
}

HTML

Add margin: auto; to your navigation element:

/* Clearfix */

.clearfix:before,
.clearfix:after {
  content: " ";
  display: table;
}

.clearfix:after {
  clear: both;
}

.clearfix {
  *zoom: 1;
}

  font-family: 'PT Sans', Arial, sans-serif;
  font-weight: bold;
  position: relative;
  text-align: center;
  border-bottom: 2px solid #da6548;
}

nav ul {
  padding: 0;
  margin: 0 auto;

nav li {
