6,376 Points[ANSWERED]. Float function now working
I'm on stage 6 - styling web pages. I'm typing all of the code which has worked fine until I have introduced 'float'. My webpage wont show two pages side-by-side as demonstrated?
Here's my CSS & HTML, any ideas?
HTML <ul> <li id="gallery"> <a href="img/numbers-01.jpg"> <img src="img/numbers-01.jpg" alt="numbers"> <p>Experimentation with colour and texture.</p> </a> </li>
CSS
/******************************* PAGE PORTFOLIO ******************************/
gallery {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
list-style: none;
}
gallery li {
float: left;
width: 45%;
margin: 2.5%;
background-color: #f5f5f5;
color: #bdc3c7;
}

1,283 PointsAaron. Im having the same problem. You said that the gallery was in the wrong section and that it should have been "within". What exactly did you mean? Did you move #gallery in your css file? If so, where to? Many Thanks!
