CSS How to Make a Website Responsive Web Design and Testing Refactor the Layout

I cleared side of every 4th list, but it said i didn't.

I cleared every side of the 4th list, but it states that i didn't . The instructions state, " Inside the media query, clear the left side of every 4th list item in the gallery." I did exactly this , the error states, " Bummer! Did you set "clear: left" on every fourth gallery list them?" Can someone please help.

Thank you

Can you try to remove the space between nth-child and the parenthesis(). Maybe this will do the trick. Let me know if it works.

No , it didnt work, thank you though.

Make Sure you keep the left bracket with no space after child then close bracket and space before applying the two open/close brackets.

Type in CSS

#gallery li:nth-child(4n) { clear: left; }

Hope this helps! - I had a similar error too when i encountered this challenge.

Hi there,

I'm not sure if it just got cut off on my screen, but it looks like there's a missing closing bracket for your media query.
