835 PointsHow do i centre gallery list items ?
Hi, I have finished the How To Make A Website and have am now looking to edit the CSS.
Since the course ended, I have updated the html to only have four images while keeping the existing css intact.
I have noticed though that gallery list items are off entered to the left hand side. I take it this is because of the li {float:left;} ?
How do i make these 4 list items sit centre in the screen while keeping it intact to have two items per row?
Below is my css + html:
HTML:
<ul id=gallery>
<li>
<a href="img/tour.jpg">
<img src="img/tour.jpg" alt="">
<p>Up Coming Show</p>
</a>
</li>
<li>
<a href="img/perform.jpg">
<img src="img/perform.jpg" alt="">
<p>Music</p>
</a>
</li>
<li>
<a href="img/vidshoot.jpg">
<img src="img/vidshoot.jpg" alt="">
<p>Videos</p>
</a>
</li>
<li>
<a href="img/merch.jpg">
<img src="img/merch.jpg" alt="">
<p>Merch</p>
</a>
</li>
</ul>
</section>```
CSS:
#gallery {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
list-style: none;
}
#gallery li {
float: left;
width: 45%;
margin: 1%;
padding: 1%;
background-color: #d9d9d9;
color: #bdc3c7;
}
#gallery li a p {
margin: 0;
padding: 3%;
font-size: 0.75em;
color: #000;
}
Thanks in advance!
