Just Replace your CSS code with below css code:

.navbar {
  overflow: hidden;
  background-color: #333;
  position: fixed;
  bottom: 0;
  width: 100%;
  display: flex;
  align-items: center;
  justify-content: center;

}

.navbar a {
  color: #f2f2f2;
  text-align: center;
  display: inline-block;
  padding: 14px 16px;
  text-decoration: none;
  font-size: 17px;
  margin: 0px auto;
}

.navbar a:hover {
  background: #f1f1f1;
  color: black;
}

and your HTML with this code:

<div class="navbar">
  <div class="navbar-inner">
     <a href="#">About</a>
     <a href="#">Contact</a>
     <a href="#">Facebook Page</a>
  </div>
</div>

Hope this code will work as you expect ..

I did the updated code that you told me about and It works guys again thanks so very much!!! — Andrew Aristizabal, Feb 01 '18 at 22:54
