#Responsive Navbar Items Hidden by Bounds of Navbar

Hey guys, this is mostly just an HTML and CSS question. I'm using HTML and CSS to build a responsive navbar. The navbar class change is working when shrinking the window size, but when I open the hamburger menu (defined by the Font Awesome ellipsis icon), some of the menu items are hidden behind the bottom of the navbar, like so:

#

There are supposed to be six items: Home, Featured, About, Skills, Portfolio, and Contact. However, some of them are hidden behind the lower bounds of the navbar, and I think they're not centered either.

#

Here is my navbar.astro file:

---
import Item from "/src/layouts/components/navbar/parts/item.astro";

export interface Props {
    items: Array<Array<string>>;
}

const { items } = Astro.props as Props;
---
<section class:list={["navbar", ]} id="navbar">
    <div class="container row row-center">
        <div class="navbar-brand">
            <img src="/resources/logos/Logo.png">
            <b>Alien Insect</b>
        </div>
        <div class="navbar-items close">
            {items.map((item) => (
                <Item title={item[0]} href={item[1]}/>
            ))}
        </div>
        <a onclick="toggleNavbar();" class="nav-toggler close"><i class="fa-solid fa-ellipsis"></i></a>
    </div>
</section>

In the referenced item.astro:

---
const { title, href } = Astro.props;
---
<a href={href} class="nav-link" data-scroll-to>{title}</a>

Here is the CSS for everything related to the navbar:

/* Navbar */
.navbar {
    list-style-type: none;
    overflow: hidden;
    display: flex;
    background-color: var(--opposite-text-color);
    position: fixed;
    top: 0;
    width: 100%;
    min-height: 7.5rem;
    height: 7.5rem;
    z-index: 100;
}

.navbar .container {
    position: relative;
}

.navbar .container div {
    display: flex;
    flex-direction: row;
    align-items: center;
    height: 100%;
}

.navbar .container .navbar-brand {
    position: absolute;
    left: min(5rem, 7.5%);
    font-family: 'Azurite', Impact;
    font-size: 1.35rem;
    width: 20rem;
    display: flex;
    align-items: center;
    flex-direction: row;
    text-decoration: none;
    white-space: nowrap;
}
#
.navbar .container .navbar-brand img {
    height: 2.5rem;
    width: 2.5rem;
    margin: 0 1rem;
}

.navbar .container .navbar-items {
    width: calc(100% - 10rem);
    position: absolute;
    justify-content: right;
    right: min(5rem, 7.5%);
}

.navbar .container .navbar-items .nav-link {
    text-transform: uppercase;
    text-decoration: none;
    font-family: 'Kanit Semibold', Arial;
    letter-spacing: 0.75px;
    font-size: 1.1rem;
    color: var(--text-color);
    padding: 0.5rem;
    margin: 0 0.5rem;
}

.navbar .container .navbar-items .nav-link:hover {
    background-color: var(--text-color);
    color: var(--opposite-text-color);
}

.navbar .container .nav-toggler {
    font-size: 3rem;
    display: none;
    border: 4px solid rgba(0,0,0,0);
    padding: 0.1rem 0.5rem;
    border-radius: 1rem;
}

.navbar .container .nav-toggler:hover {
    cursor: pointer;
    border: 4px solid #fff;
}

@media screen and (max-width: 1100px) {
    .navbar .container .navbar-items.close .nav-link {
        display: none;
    }

    .navbar .container .nav-toggler {
        position: absolute;
        justify-content: right;
        right: min(5rem, 7.5%);
        display: flex;
    }

    .navbar .container .navbar-items.open {
        position: absolute;
        display: flex;
        flex-direction: column;
        align-items: center;
        justify-content: center;
        top: 0;
        width: 100%;
        z-index: 11;
        margin-top: 7.5rem;
    }

    .navbar .container .navbar-items.open .nav-link {
        background-color: var(--opposite-text-color) !important;
        display: flex;
        z-index: 100;
    }
}
#

And finally, I am using a navbar.js file to toggle classes whenever hitting the button:

function toggleNavbar() {
    const navbar = document.getElementsByClassName("navbar-items")[0];
    const toggler = document.getElementsByClassName("nav-toggler")[0];

    if (navbar.classList.contains("close")) {
        navbar.classList.remove("close");
        navbar.classList.add("open");
    }

    else if (navbar.classList.contains("open")) {
        navbar.classList.remove("open");
        navbar.classList.add("close");
    }

    console.log(navbar);
}
#

Can someone help me with my problem above. I put a screenshot above to highlight what's going wrong with my responsive navbar. Here it is again, when the navbar-items class is toggled to "open":

The style overflow: hidden on the .navbar class is hiding overflowing content
