wrapper { max-width: 980px;
margin: auto; }
i just tried this and it still is wrong idk whats wrong about it
Laurence Foley
16,695 PointsSorry, I thought you were asked to center the div. I see that they want you to remove the underlines form all links. All you need to do is this
a {
text-decoration: none
}
Laurence Foley
16,695 Pointsjust seen the other step now. It looks you just have the wrong width value, it should be 940px. Try this.
a {
text-decoration: none;
}
#wrapper {
max-width: 960px;
margin: 0 auto;
}

16,695 PointsTo center the #wrapper div you need to first specify a width, then set the margin property to auto. The keyword auto will automatically calculate the left and right margin of an element so that it is always centered.
