Ah, my bad, missed something less obvious. You need to close the space between li: and nth-child, it should be:

#gallery li:nth-child(4n) { clear: left; }

Edit - screwing around with the text to make my code appear correctly.

If you're trying to clear every 4th item, your nth-child argument should be (4n) not (4).

it still not working. So this is my code: #gallery li: nth-child(4n) {

clear: left; }

HIs code is missing the id selector has gallery should have #gallery and the (4n) is (4) in his code.

So David your answer is the right one.
