My code looks the same as the video but isn't repeating the same view in the browser.

I can't figure out why the main content is still the same width as the header and footer.

body { line-height: 1.6; color: #3a3a3a; }

a { color: #fff; text-decoration: none; }

/* ================================= Base Layout Styles ==================================== */

/* ---- Navigation ---- */

.name { margin: 0; }

/* ---- Layout Containers ---- */

.containter { width: 70%; margin: 0 auto; }

.main-header { background: #3acec2; padding: 1em 0; }

.main-footer { text-align: center; padding: 2em 0; background: #d9e4ea; }

I cant see the HTML but .container is spelled incorrectly in your CSS as .containter

Could this be the issue?

Thanks David
