Remember that block display elements start a new line and take up the full width available. They do not flow with the surrounding content.

display has four possible values - none, inline, block, and inline-block. Most of the time you'll be using either block or inline-block. There's a good article here discussing the differences.

If you still feel stuck, let me know and we can talk through the solution. Good luck, and happy coding!
