a flex-wrap question

Hi guys!

Just a quick question here. I'm creating a 3 column layout with flex-box, where when it comes to a specific resolution the third column should go bellow the 1st and 2nd column like the Guil Hernandez makes in his course.

So here is the mystery: when I apply the css below it doesn't work 

@media (min-width: 769px) {
.row{   
    display: flex;   
        flex-wrap: wrap;
}

.col {
    flex: 1 50%;
}
}

but if apply this (code below) instead it works. 

@media (min-width: 769px) {
.row{   
       display: flex;   
}
.col {
       flex: 1 50%;
}
.row {    
flex-wrap: wrap;
}
}

It's kinda vague to me.. Hope you guys can help. TYIA!

This doesn't make sense, those should operate identically.

Could you make a snapshot of your workspace and post the link to it here?

On my browser, they do work the same.

But I noticed one thing that might possibly be an issue on a different browser: in your first .row rule, there's no space between the class name and the open brace.

:point_right: Try adding the space and see if makes both forms work for you also.
