CSS CSS Basics (2014) Basic Layout Clearing Floats

Can't get the "group:after" thing to work...

When I use the "group: after" code, my floats aren't displaying how they are supposed to...

/* Floated Columns ------------------ */

.resorts, .tips { width: 46.5% }

.tips { float: right; }

.resorts { float: left; }

/* Float Clearfix ------------------ */

.group:after { content: ""; display: table; clear: both; }

and...

<div class="primary-content t-border group">

I don't understand what I'm doing wrong...

It looks like you added the "group" class to the div element that already has the class "primary-content".

But in the video, the "group" class is added to the div that has the class "secondary-content" instead.

thank you so much i was having the same issue.
