CSS Adding column in pricing table

Hi have this following codes taken from W3schools.com customized it for blogger blog post.

<style>
/*----------Price Box--------------*/

.pricecolumns {
    float: left;
    width: 33.3%;
    padding: 8px;
}

.price {
    list-style-type: none;
    border: 1px solid #eee;
    margin: 0;
    padding: 0;
    -webkit-transition: 0.3s;
    transition: 0.3s;
}

.price:hover {
    box-shadow: 0 8px 12px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.2)
}

.price .priceheader {
    background-color: #2CB8DA;
    color: white;
    font-size: 25px;
}

.price li {
    border-bottom: 1px solid #eee;
    padding: 20px;
    text-align: center;
}

.price .grey {
    background-color: #FFFFEF;
    font-size: 20px;
}

.pricebutton {
    background-color: #FBA614;
    border: none;
    color: white;
    padding: 10px 25px;
    text-align: center;
    text-decoration: none;
    font-size: 18px;
}
</style>
<body>
<div class="pricecolumns">
  <ul class="price">
    <li class="priceheader">Rent</li>
    <li class="grey">$ 18.99 / Month</li>
    <li>Test The Product on Live Market</li>
    <li class="grey"><a href="#" class="pricebutton">Rent</a></li>
  </ul>
</div>

<div class="pricecolumns">
  <ul class="price">
    <li class="priceheader" style="background-color:#4CAF50">Buy</li>
    <li class="grey">$ 27.99 Life Time</li>
    <li>Buy Forever License</li>
    <li class="grey"><a href="#" class="pricebutton">Buy Now!</a></li>
  </ul>
</div>
</body>

But the problem is. the blocks are showing one after another. Not like with 2 columns as it shown in the website.

I couldn't add following code (As the tutorial suggested) because of this code it making blogger drop down menu look weird.

* {
    box-sizing: border-box;
}

Solution

  • There is a problem in your css. You used wrong css selector in css , a typo.

    Change this-

    .pricecolumns {
    float: left;
    width: 33.3%;
    padding: 8px;
}

    to this-

    .price_columns {
    float: left;
    width: 33.3%;
    padding: 8px;
}

    Below are the approahes for 2 comlumns and 3 columns-

    2 Columns-

    /*----------Price Box--------------*/

.price_columns {
    float: left;
    width: 33.3%;
    padding: 8px;
}

.price {
    list-style-type: none;
    border: 1px solid #eee;
    margin: 0;
    padding: 0;
    -webkit-transition: 0.3s;
    transition: 0.3s;
}

.price:hover {
    box-shadow: 0 8px 12px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.2)
}

.price .priceheader {
    background-color: #2CB8DA;
    color: white;
    font-size: 25px;
}

.price li {
    border-bottom: 1px solid #eee;
    padding: 20px;
