My header looks different on the 660px

Hi there,

I followed along with my code and I ran into this problem:

When I extend the browser to 660px or more the logo on my header won't get in line with the navigation bar, it seems to stay on its own block, although it floats to the left. I used different font types, but I used the same font size whats in the video. I tried to set the display of the header elements to inline, but it still the same. Does anyone have a suggestion? It would be much appreciated.

Thank you Csaba

It's hard for us to know what's causing the issue you are having if you don't show us your code. For some tips on how to do that, check out the tips for asking questions video located in the right hand sidebar.

Try reducing the width of the navigation and the logo and see if it works then.

Otherwise comment out your CSS and add it again one line at a time to see when it breaks.
