Fixed Icon Jumping While Scrolling - Mobile

Hi!

I'm creating a responsive site. When the window is 750px or less, my nav bar "disappears" and a hamburger icon replaces it. It has a fixed position. It works well until a user scrolls, then the icon kind of jumps up or down depending on the scroll, and then settles back into place. Any suggestions on how to prevent this jumping effect?

Here's my css:

.hamburger { position:fixed; top:65px; margin:0 auto; left:48%; display:block; }

Try adding some padding. If that doesnt work you could use Stack Overflow. They've always got the answer.

I dont know really but alot of the time if something goes wrong with my code, adding some padding fixes it i dont know why.
