So I am creating a dropdown list with text and a delete button, but I have a small issue. When pressing the ahref link, it redirects perfectly to the website, but when pressing the delete button, it displays the popup message as it should, but then redirect to the ahref link. I don't want it to redirect when pressing the delete button. How can I avoid this?

alert("You clicked the button");
return;

#navbar should not be inside #main-container!
Don't place <button> inside <a> and vice-versa.
Use a common parent for both your <a> and <button> instead. (I.e: use an <ul> and <li> list)
type='deleteBtn' is an invalid attribute. Use class instead class='deleteBtn'
Don't use inline on* handlers. JS should be in one place only, and that's your script
Edited CSS and HTML:
function removeListItem(ev) {
const EL_list = ev.currentTarget.closest("li")
EL_list.remove();
}
const ELS_deleteBtn = document.querySelectorAll(".deleteBtn");
ELS_deleteBtn.forEach(EL => EL.addEventListener("click", removeListItem));

I am trying to create a dropdown menu from "about us" but there seems to be some color unabling to give a proper dropdown. On the navigation bar there's a block of red color next to the "Home" button. Also when i hover on the "About us" button there are again red color visible therefore not aligning the dropdown menu links. Can someone explains how to remove the additional color? Here's my code:

The way you code your css is different then how you have the html structure.
<a class="active"><button class="dropbtn">About us <i class="fa fa-caret-down"></i></button></a>
Check the above line and replace it in your code.
Wrap your button element inside a (anchor) tag.

One way to do this is to add an eventListener on the document. Then you check what has been clicked and if it involves your dropdown, do nothing, and if it doesn't involve your dropdown, then close the dropdowns.
This example uses closest() which will go up the parents of the clicked element to try and find one that has the class dropdown. If it finds one (not null), then we know we don't want to close the dropdown since the user is interacting with it. All other cases will close the dropdown.
document.addEventListener('click', (e) => {
// cases where we want to close the dropdown
if (e.target.closest(".dropdown") === null) {
document.querySelectorAll('.dropdown-content').forEach(el => el.classList.remove("show"));
}
});
function toggleDropDown(id) {
document.querySelectorAll('.dropdown-content').forEach(el => el.id === id ? el.classList.toggle('show') : el.classList.remove("show"));
}

I'm trying to make a navigation bar with one category being a different color (blue) than the others (green). When you hover off of this blue HOME category, it needs to turn green. The category that is hovered over should turn blue, then return to green when not hovered over. Here are some pictures for reference:
Default/Home state: User starts on the Home page. The Home category is blue to show the user where they are.
Employer state: User has navigated to the Employer Page. The Home category is now green.

If what you want is to make active elements turn back to their normal color when hovering over other elements all you have to do is to add this at the bottom of your CSS:
.topnav > .active {
background-color: #005da6;
}
.topnav:hover > .active {
background-color: inherit;
}
.topnav > .active:hover {
background-color: #005da6;
}
.dropdown-content > .active {
background-color: #003150;
}
.dropdown-content:hover > .active {
background-color: inherit;
}
.dropdown-content > .active:hover {
background-color: #003150;
}
If you just want some ideas for active elements handling, take a look to the following simplified snippet:
(NOTE: Below navigation bar works with pure HTML and CSS (No JS). JS is being used only to change the active elements automatically when the browser URL changes.)
// * THIS IS ONLY A DEMONSTRATIVE EXAMPLE *
const links = Array.from(document.querySelectorAll('.topnav a'));
const addActive = (elem) => {
let current = elem;
while (current && !current.classList.contains('topnav')) {
if (current.classList.contains('dropdown')) {
current.classList.add('active');
break;
}
current = current.parentElement;
}
elem.classList.add('active');
};
const handler = (e) => {
const previousA = document.querySelector('.topnav .active');
const previousB = document.querySelector('.dropdown-content .active');
if (previousA) {
previousA.classList.remove('active');
}
if (previousB) {
previousB.classList.remove('active');
}
const next = links.find((link) => location.href === link.href) || links[0];
if (next) {
addActive(next);
}
};
window.addEventListener('popstate', handler);
document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', handler);

I'm trying to add a navigation bar to a web app I'm making for a class, and I wanted to use a drop-down menu in it (too many things to include to put everything straight across).
I want the bar to be fixed to the top of the page, but when I put in position: fixed;, the drop-down menu stops working.
Is there any way around this? Am I just putting the position: fixed; in the wrong spot, or is conflicting with the drop down content having position: absolute; maybe...?
(I'm very new to web stuff, so if you see anything else I could change/approve, please let me know! Advice very much appreciated)
ul {
list-style-type: none;
margin: 0;
top: 0;
position: fixed;
width: 100%;
padding: 0;
overflow: hidden;
background-color: #333;
}
li {
float: left;
}
li a,
.dropbtn {
display: inline-block;
color: white;
text-align: center;
padding: 14px 16px;
text-decoration: none;
}
li a:hover,
.dropdown:hover .dropbtn {
background-color: #111;
}
li.dropdown {
display: inline-block;
}
.active {
background-color: #4CAF50;
}
.dropdown-content {
display: none;
position: absolute;
background-color: #f9f9f9;
min-width: 160px;
box-shadow: 0px 8px 16px 0px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.2);
z-index: 1;
}
.dropdown-content a {
color: black;
padding: 12px 16px;
text-decoration: none;
display: block;
text-align: left;
}
.dropdown-content a:hover {
background-color: #f1f1f1;
}
.dropdown:hover .dropdown-content {
display: block;
}
<html>
<head>

<ul>
<li><a class="active" href="/homePageAgent">Home</a></li>
<li class="dropdown">

</li>
<li style="float:right">Logout</li>
</ul>

Basically, "View Pages" should become a drop down menu when hovered over with the mouse, and it does if I take out the "position:fixed;" line, but... I want the position to be fixed.
Put your navigation into a layer. And make this layer with fixed position.
.navbar-top {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
width: 100%;
top: 0;
position: fixed;
}
ul {
list-style-type: none;
margin: 0;
top: 0;
/*position: fixed;*/
width: 100%;
padding: 0;
overflow: hidden;
background-color: #333;
}
li {
float: left;
}
li a,
.dropbtn {
display: inline-block;
color: white;
text-align: center;
padding: 14px 16px;
text-decoration: none;
}
li a:hover,
.dropdown:hover .dropbtn {
background-color: #111;
}
li.dropdown {
display: inline-block;
}
.active {
background-color: #4CAF50;
}
.dropdown-content {
display: none;
position: absolute;
background-color: #f9f9f9;
min-width: 160px;
box-shadow: 0px 8px 16px 0px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.2);
z-index: 1;
}
.dropdown-content a {
color: black;
padding: 12px 16px;
text-decoration: none;
display: block;
text-align: left;
}
.dropdown-content a:hover {
background-color: #f1f1f1;
}
.dropdown:hover .dropdown-content {
display: block;
}

You can delete ul{overflow:hidden;}
You should not apply for the position:fixed on the UL
You can use a div to warp the UL and apply on it the position fixed.
Here is one way to achieve this (live demo):
.mainheader {
height: 25px;
position: fixed;
display: block;
z-index: 10;
background: #333;
width: 100%;
font-size: 14px;
top: 0;
font-family: Calibri;
}
.nav {
width: 100%;
height: 25px;
background: #333;
margin: 0 auto;
}
ul {
list-style-type: none;
margin: 0;
top: 0;
width: 100%;
padding: 0;
overflow: hidden;
background-color: #333;
}
li {
float: left;
}
li a,
.dropbtn {
display: inline-block;
color: white;
text-align: center;
padding: 14px 16px;
text-decoration: none;
}
li a:hover,
.dropdown:hover .dropbtn {
background-color: #111;
}
li.dropdown {
display: inline-block;
}
.active {
background-color: #4CAF50;
}
.dropdown-content {
display: none;
position: absolute;
background-color: #f9f9f9;
min-width: 160px;
box-shadow: 0px 8px 16px 0px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.2);
z-index: 1;
}
.dropdown-content a {
color: black;
padding: 12px 16px;
text-decoration: none;
display: block;
text-align: left;
}
.dropdown-content a:hover {
background-color: #f1f1f1;
}
.dropdown:hover .dropdown-content {
display: block;
}

<div class="mainheader">
