CSS

NAVigation bar

I have 3 links on the Nav bar and although I´ve used the "display: inline-block" and checked the links on the HTML code, they still show up in 2 columns and not parallel to each other. I can´t seem to understand why, as I was following the steps of Nick in the video lesson...

Here´s my CSS code:

/********************* GENERAL STYLING **********************/

wrapper {

max-width: 940px; margin: 0 auto;
padding: 0 5%;

}

a {text-decoration: none;}

img { max-width: 100%; }

h3 { margin: 0 0 1em 0; }

/***************************** HEADING *****************************/

header { float: left; margin: 0 0 5px 0; padding: 5px 0 0 0; width: 100%; }

logo {

text-align: center; /*** Ricky Narciso - Web Designer */ margin: 0; }

h2 { font-size: 0.75em; margin: -5px 0 0; /** 1st value sets the top, 2nd value sets the left and right, 3rd value sets the bottom */ font-weight: normal; }

/***************************** navigation - links *****************************/

nav { text-align: center; padding: 5px 0; margin: 5px 0 0; }

nav ul { list-style: none; margin: 0 10px; padding: 0; }

nav li { display: inline-block; }

nav a { font-weight: 800; padding: 15px 10px; }

/***************************** FOOTER *****************************/

footer { font-size: 0.75em; text-align: center; clear: both; padding-top: 50px; color: #ccc; }

.social-icon { width: 20px; height: 20px; margin: 0 5px; }

/***************************** PAGE PORTFOLIO *****************************/

gallery {

margin: 0; padding: 0; list-style: none; }

gallery li {

float: left; width: 45%; margin: 2.5%; background-color: #f5f5f5; color: #bdc3c7; }

gallery li a p {

margin: 0; padding: 5%; font-size: 0.75em; color: #bdc3c7; }

/***************************** PAGE: ABOUT *****************************/ .profile-photo { display: block; max-width: 150px; margin: 0 auto 30px; border-radius: 100%; }

/***************************** PAGE: CONTACT *****************************/

.contact-info { list-style: none; padding: 0; margin: 0; font-size: 0.9em; }

.contact-info a { display: block; min-height: 20px; background-repeat: no-repeat; background-size: 20px 20px; padding: 0 0 0 30px; margin: 0 0 10px;

.contact-info li.phone a { background-image: url('../img/phone.png'); }

.contact-info li.mail a { background-image: url('../img/mail.png'); }

.contact-info li.twitter a { background-image: url('../img/twitter.png'); }

/***************************** COLORS *****************************/

/* SITE BODY */

body { background-color: #fff; color: #999; }

/* GREEN HEADER */ header { background: #6ab47b; border-color: #fffccc; }

/* NAV BACKGROUND ON MOBILE */ nav { background: #599a68; }

/* LOGO TEXT */ h1, h2 { color: #fff; }

/* LINKS*/ a { color: #6ab47b; }

/* NAV LINK */ nav a, nav a:visited { color: #fff;
}

/* SELECTED NAV LINK */ nav a.selected, nav a:hover { color: #32673f; }

I just did the code and it works for me. Question, are you placing the <header> tage outside of the wrapper<div> or inside of the .wrapper<div>?
