Why my contact page is showing all along width of site, i Need it to show in two columns in larger screens: 

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head>
    <meta charset="utf-8">
    <title>Mauricio Lancheros | Ingeniero de Sistemas</title>
    <link rel="stylesheet" href="css/normalize.css">
    <link href='http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Montserrat:400,700|Ubuntu:400,700,400italic,700italic' rel='stylesheet' type='text/css'>
    <link rel="stylesheet" href="css/main.css">  
    <link rel="stylesheet" href="css/responsive.css">
  </head>
  <body>
    <header>
      <a href="index.html" id="logo">
        <h1>Mauricio Lancheros</h1>
        <h2>Ingeniero de Sistemas y Telecomunicaciones</h2>
      </a>
    <nav>
      <ul>
        <li><a href="index.html">Portafolio</a></li>

        <li><a href="contact.html" class="selected">Contacto</a></li>
      </ul>         
    </nav>
    </header>
    <div id="wrapper">
    <section id= "primary">

    </footer>
    </div>
  </body>
</html>

And responsive CSS

@media screen and (min-width: 480px) {
  /*******************************
  TWO COLUMN LAYOUT
  ********************************/

  #primary {
    width: 50;
    float: left;
  }

  #secondary {
    width: 40%;
    float: right;
  }
}

@media screen and (min-width: 660px) {

}

I think this will help you my friend.

  1. I noticed that your footer needs a clear. So if you add to responsive.css the following: footer {clear: both;} This will separate your footer from secondary.

  2. You may have forgotten to add a percentage sign the width for primary. So after the 50 in the width for primary, just add % symbol.
