Hello! I have a question on the inline vs block display of the 7.Keep it inline lesson.

The HTML file for the nav bar reads:

<nav>
      <ul>
        <li><b>Arctic</b></a></li>
        <li>Alpine</a></li>
        <li>Antarctic</a></li>
      </ul>
      <div class="contact-btn"><a>Contact</a>
      </div>
    </nav>

So nav ul contains nav li.

In the CSS file nav ul is styled - display: inline; - but the results of the code is still a block display. Only when nav li is styled inline then the display changes. So, as nav ul contains nav li, why is that that the display doesn’t change to inline?

Thanks for your help!

I am wondering the same thing now, a year after this was posted :slight_smile:
