Tried writting the clearfix code to all of the class. Question ask to add to the .copyright.

added clearfix to the .copyright Bummer! Make sure you're selecting the class 'copyright'. Since the clearfix adds the class to after tried before to all classes. Wrote a clearfloat property: .clearfloat::before {content""; display: table; clear:both; Nothing has worked.. What am I doing wrong..

style.css 
/* Complete the challenge by writing CSS below */



.clearfix::after {
  content: "";
  display: table;
  clear: both;
}
.footer-nav {
  float:left;
}
.logo {
  float: right;

}
.footer-nav li {
 float:right; 
}
.clearbefore::before{
    content: "";
  display: table;
  clear: both;
}

Hi Don,

Here is the answer:

.copyright {
 clear: both;
}

The question asks for a property and value to add to the copyright class. The property being used here is 'clear', the value being used is 'both'. Hope this helps!
