# WordPress Gallery (shortcode) Markup ISSUE

 * Hello,
    I hoping that someone can put me in the right direction before I pull
   my hair out! I’m trying to edit the default html that wordpress puts out for 
   the default gallery. I’m using the shortcode method to display my gallery on 
   a custom template page. The problem is that wordpress is automatically inputting`
   <br style="clear:both">` into the html markup and it’s messing things up for 
   me! I have been messing with this for hours, literally. I found this on another
   post:
 *     ```
       function remove_gallery_css()
       {
       	return "<ul class=\"gallery\">";
       }
       add_filter('gallery_style', 'remove_gallery_css');
   
       function fix_gallery_output( $output )
       {
       $output = preg_replace("%<br style=.*clear: both.* />%", "", $output);
       return $output;
       }
       add_filter('the_content', 'fix_gallery_output',11, 1);
       ```
   
 * I added this into my functions file and it is STILL adding in the same clear:
   both style to the 
    elements! UGH! Can anyone please help me with this?
