3,578 PointsIconography will not displaying as in video.
I used the code exactly as in the video for the contact iconographs however it places the icons within the text on any view larger than a mobile device. The only way I am able to fix the problem is to change display from block to auto. Shouldn't block actually be the correct way instead of auto? My code is below and should match the video.
.contact-info { list-style: none; padding: 0; margin: 0; font-size: 0.9em; }
.contact-info a { display: block; min-height: 20px; background-repeat: no-repeat; background-size: 20px 20px; padding: 0 0 0 30px; margin: 0 0 10px; }

Courses Plus Student 15,005 PointsHi David,
Can you please post your html code for the contact page as well as your main.css file so that it is easier to see exactly what is happening. You can use the Markdown Cheatsheet so that it is formatted properly as code.
The code you did past appears to match the files from the class so posting all of your code may help identify the issue you are having.
