I have been working on incorporating a masonry layout of images into my website, but I am facing alignment issues. The images are simply stacking on top of each other instead of creating the desired masonry effect. Are there any tips on how to create a masonry section using CSS/HTML or perhaps styling a table to achieve the masonry layout?
Here is the HTML code I am using:
<div class="masonry">
<div class="item">IMAGE GOES HERE</div>
<div class="item">SECOND IMAGE </div>
THIRD IMAGE
<div class="item">FOURTH IMAGE</div>
</div>
And here is the CSS code I have implemented:
.masonry { /* Masonry container */
column-count: 4;
column-gap: 1em;
}
.item { /* Masonry bricks or child elements */
background-color: #eee;
display: inline-block;
margin: 0 0 1em;
width: 100%;
}
Take a look at the image below to see the desired layout: https://i.sstatic.net/4MdG0.png
