please see example: <http://bit.ly/1H27G9I>

I am trying to change the style of the standard bootstrap nav bar so that there are links on the left and right then the logo in the middle. I have succeeded with the positioning, however then left side links are not clickable anymore. I read that it might be to do with the z-index but that didn't seem to solve the problem.

I have attached my html code with some custom css. Any advice is greatly appreciated!

```css
.headerlogo{

    position: absolute;
    width: 100%;
    left: 0;
    top: 0;
 height: 125px;

}

.navbar-brand
{
 padding-top: 35px;
 width: 160px;
 margin: 0 auto;
 position: absolute;
 left: 50%;
 margin-left: -80px; /* Half the width */

}

.navbar-left {

padding-top: 35px;
padding-left: 200px;

}

.navbar-right {

padding-top: 35px;
padding-right: 200px;

}

@media (min-width: 970px){
 .navbar-default {
  height: 125px;
  background-color: #151515;
 }

 .res-img {
  max-width:160px; 
  margin-top: -15px;
 }
}

@media (max-width: 970px){
 .navbar-default {
  height: 80px;
  background-color: #151515;
 }

 .res-img {
  max-width:100px; 
  margin-top: -15px;
 }

 .headerlogo
 {
  position: absolute;
  width: 300px;
  left: 0;
  top: 0;
  height: 125px;

 }

.navbar-brand
 {
   float: left;
   height: 50px;
   padding: 15px 15px;
   font-size: 18px;
   line-height: 20px;
 }
}
```
