3,333 PointsWhy can't I get the last step right in Responsive Web Design and Testing?
When I do the 2 of 2 step in the Responsive Web Design and Testing stage 8 I seem to never get it right. When they ask me to clear the fourth left side inside the media screen I do it the way Nick has shown us in the module but it still says I'm not clearing it. So I use the code of "#gallery li:nth-child(4n) { clear:left }" So I'm really stuck on this one and I am so sorry if my question makes no sense.

You want the :nth-child psudo selector right up against the list item element selector. Should work as expected then.
#gallery li:nth-child(4n) {
clear: left;
}

@media screen and (min-width: 480px) { /**************************** TWO COLUMN LAYOUT *****************************/
#primary {
width: 50%;
float: left;
}
#secondary {
width: 40%;
float: right;
}
/****************************
PAGE: PORTFOLIO
*****************************/
#gallery li {
width: 28.3333%;
}
#gallery li:nth-child(4n) {
clear: left;
}
/****************************
PAGE: ABOUT
*****************************/
.profile-photo {
float: left;
margin: 0 5% 80px 0;
}
}
