In the video, Nick uses the following code for the 3-column layout:
'''
gallery li {
width:28.3333%;
}
'''
This does not work for me. Instead, the following code works for me:
'''
gallery a {
width:28.3333%;
}
'''
Why is this happening?

}

2,694 PointsSorry, I missed the # when I asked the question. Here is the exact code I used:
''' #gallery a { width:28.3333%; }
#gallery a:nth-child(4n){ clear:left; }
'''
It does not work if I replaced 'a' with 'li'. I am using Google Chrome Version 39.0.2171.99 m as my browser.

6,962 PointsHey there, your doing a great job by asking for input from the club. I am stumped without seeing the entire code. I would love to figure this one out with you. Could you please look into using codepen to share the HTML and the CSS? The a anchor tag has me wondering a few things I would like to try. Whenever you can is cool.
