28,736 PointsPost your code, without it, helping you is going to be difficult, either you post it here (the html & css) using markdown or you post the link to this specific workspace (that's actually the best way), this way we 'll be able to check your code and find the problem.

5,011 PointsI found the problem. The "#" somehow vanished from in front of my "gallery" id and rendered those rules unworkable. I put the "#" back in and the column split.
