    Hi Folks,

    Can someone please help me. I've created a page with three columns using the following code:

    <div class="one-third first">My content</div>
    <div class="one-third">Some more content</div>
    <div class="one-third">Some more content</div>
    <div class="one-third">Some more content</div>
    <div class="one-third">Some more content</div>

    with the following CSS to style it.

    .five-sixths,
    .four-sixths,
    .one-fourth,
    .one-half,
    .one-sixth,
    .one-third,
    .three-fourths,
    .three-sixths,
    .two-fourths,
    .two-sixths,
    .two-thirds {
    float: left;
    margin-left: 2.564102564102564%;
    }

    .one-half,
    .three-sixths,
    .two-fourths {
    width: 48.717948717948715%;
    }

    .one-third,
    .two-sixths {
    width: 31.623931623931625%;
    }

    The first three work fine and is exactly what I'm after but the rest of the content then is only working as a two column layout.

    The page can be seen @ http://www.awlhousewash.co.nz/Blog/testimonials/

    Have I missed something or done something wrong. I'm new to coding and this is my first attempt at using Genesis so I'd really appreciated your input.

    Thank you
    Alan

    on your fourth div (and all following divs that will be the first in their row) add the .first class:

    <div class=”one-third first”>My content</div>
    <div class=”one-third”>Some more content</div>
    <div class=”one-third”>Some more content</div>
    <div class=”one-third first”>Some more content</div>
    <div class=”one-third”>Some more content</div>
