2,280 PointsHELP - Inside the media query, clear the left side of every 4th list item
this is the code i've used:
gallery li: nth-child(4n) {clear:left}
and it keeps coming up with the error message:
Bummer! Did you set the "clear:left" on every fourth list item in the gallery.
Any help would be appreciated, being trying to figure this out for awhile.

You have a space after li:
that you have to remove.
Should be li:nth-child(4n)

Thanks for the suggestion, I will get into the habit of doing that!
Thanks again for your help.

I have removed the space and added a # to gallery as seen in other help question.
so now I have,
gallery li:nth-child(4n) {clear:left}
and its coming up with the error message:
Bummer! Be sure to only clear the left side of the list items when the device is 480 px wide or wide.
Again, any help would be appreciated.

Courses Plus Student 94,610 PointsThat's the correct code Where are you placing it?
It should be inside the 480px media query that's at the bottom of the css.
Post the entire media query that you have at the bottom with what you're putting in for task 1 and 2.
Also, it doesn't cause a problem here but you should get into the habit of ending every declaration with a semicolon.
You're missing one after
clear: left
It should beclear: left;
It doesn't cause a problem when you only have a single declaration, but most of the time it will be a problem if you leave them off.
