The screen is responsive except it doesn't go to three columns
@media screen and (min-width: 480px){ #primary{ width:50%; float:left;
} #secondary{ width:40%; float:right; } #gallery li { width: 28.3333%; }
#gallery li:nth-child(4n) { clear: left; } }
@media screen and (min-width: 660px){
}

The problem was not in your CSS code but in a misspell on your HTML where you link to the stylesheet:
<link rel="stylesheet" href="css/repsonsive.css">
Should be:
<link rel="stylesheet" href="css/responsive.css">
look at the word "RESPONSIVE" very closely, you have the SP reversed.

10,343 PointsI know this may sound obvious but did you save your responsive.css file after making changes? I made changes to the file and did not save my changes (you can see an orange dot next to the file if it is not saved) and in fact my changes were not applied.
After saving the code worked as expected.
Here is a sample file with the code you posted to confirm that in fact your code works!
mike lyell
3,213 PointsYeah, It looks right.. Do you know if there is any code in the the main.css file that would override it and not allow 3 columns
Helmut Granda
10,343 PointsNo that I know of and I doubt it, your code that I moved over to my sample was only modifying styles.css and not touching main.css at all.

Treehouse TeacherHi there! If other people are claiming that it works, but it's not working on your end then in all likelihood there's nothing wrong with your code. Chances are, the issue is with your browser. Have you tried clearing the cache and then refreshing the preview? It sounds like it may be loading in an a cached version of your site.
Let me know if this helps!
mike lyell
3,213 PointsYes I did try that as well as a different browser. I don't I will just move on and ignore it for now.

3,213 Pointsthank you ahead of time, tried to continue ahead and the next task adjusting about page didn't work either, so I have obviously messed up something along the way
