Why is my Clearfix Collapsing..?

Hi there guys,

After recently switching from Back End Development track, to Front End, i have begun apply what i have learnt to new page for my existing site. However, i have rum into a problem where my clearfix appears to stop working after my first media query(max-width : 768px). From this width and up, my 3 containers that carry the clearfix class, completely collapse to the top of the page. Is this a common quirk, and is there a fix??

Regards

Stu

Hi, make sure that your clearfix code is not wrapped inside a media query. This way, it should apply to all your breakpoints.

seems it was a lagging server, and a mesua query not closed properly. thanks
