Here's the result I get (http://scr.hu/17re/k34ii)
My code look's like this (http://scr.hu/17re/3omov).
I thought it was exactly as in tutorial.

6,607 PointsAre you sure that is the right page? You don't have any of the content that is being displayed in the first example you posted.

2,738 PointsSorry i got it wrong, but I've edited the link, so now it is correct.

6,607 PointsTake a look at the zip files for the lesson you were on. It looks like in your code you are adding a break after the paragraph to try and clear the float and the lesson suggest a clearfix on the before and after pseudo elements applied to the class of the main div.
It looks like that is what is causing your issues.
Daniel Kaszuba
2,738 PointsNo, I don't think this is the problem. In the video, everything looks ok even at the moment when br is used. So the correct effect is there before pseudo elements exchange a break.

2,738 PointsThere we go :-) It's incredible that you may be looking at the same code for like half an hour and not to realize something that obvious ;-) Thanks a lot Jason!
