You need to update code like this.

  <div class="container clearfix">
  <div id="featured-cupcake" class="grid_5 omega">
    <h2>Cupcake of the Week</h2>
    <img src="img/featured-cupcake.jpg">
  </div>
  </div>

Yes :) Another amazing thing is, you test yourself after that amazing videos. I learnt lots of things from these great people and there are many titles to learn. They are working like a bee.

Yeah, I can see that. I'm so excited about the following stages. Looking forward to discussing more things with you. :)

Of course Ian. Whenever you want...

hi, I got a problem with the grid.css file. I can't see all the codes of the last line in the grid.css file presented in the video. All I have now is .clear{clear:both;display:block;overflow:hidden;visibility:hidden;width:0;height:0}.clearfix:after{clear:both;content:' ';display:block;font-size:0;} There should be some more words after font-size:0 :(

I think this is what you want. I found it from my computer :)

/* Width: 1000px # Columns : 12 Column width: 65px Gutter : 20px

*/ .grid_1 { width: 65px; } .grid_2 { width: 150px; } .grid_3 { width: 235px; } .grid_4 { width: 320px; } .grid_5 { width: 405px; } .grid_6 { width: 490px; } .grid_7 { width: 575px; } .grid_8 { width: 660px; } .grid_9 { width: 745px; } .grid_10 { width: 830px; } .grid_11 { width: 915px; } .grid_12 { width: 1000px; }

.grid_1, .grid_2, .grid_3, .grid_4, .grid_5, .grid_6, .grid_7, .grid_8, .grid_9, .grid_10, .grid_11, .grid_12 { margin: 0 20px 10px 0; float: left; display: block; }

.alpha{margin-left:0px;} .omega{margin-right:0px;}

.container{ width: 1000px; margin: auto; }

.clear{clear:both;display:block;overflow:hidden;visibility:hidden;width:0;height:0}.clearfix:after{clear:both;content:' ';display:block;font-size:0;line-height:0;visibility:hidden;width:0;height:0}* html .clearfix,*:first-child+html .clearfix{zoom:1}
