My design is not consistent in Firefox and Safari

Question

Following my previous question, I have a code to show 8 boxes in two rows. The code perfectly works in FireFox and Chrome but not in Safari!

Firefox's output

Safari's output

enter image description here I have no clue what the reason might be.

Use the prefixes!

display: -webkit-flex;
display: -ms-flexbox;
display: flex;
-webkit-flex-wrap: wrap;
    -ms-flex-wrap: wrap;
        flex-wrap: wrap;

CanIUse is a great spot to confirm support!
And if you can swing it, I highly recommend working AutoPrefixer into your workflow!

IN THE SAMPLE CSS:

html, body {
  height: 100%;
}

body {
  margin: 0;
  padding: 0;
}

.itemClass {
  width: 100%;
  margin: 0 0 1em 0;
  box-shadow: 0px 0px 1px 1px black;
  background: white;
  display: -webkit-flex;
  display: -ms-flexbox;
  display: flex;
}

.boxes {
  list-style: none;
  display: -webkit-flex;
  display: -ms-flexbox;
  display: flex;
  -webkit-flex-wrap: wrap;
    -ms-flex-wrap: wrap;
        flex-wrap: wrap;
  max-width: 1900px;
  width: 100%;
  margin: 0 auto;
  padding: 1em;
}

.boxesheader {
  margin: 0 auto -35px;
  max-width: 1900px;
  padding: 1em 0;
  width: 100%;
}

.itemClass>img {
  height: 74px;
  width: 120px;
  margin: 0 5px 0 0;
}

.itemClass>span {
  width: calc(100% - 55px);
  margin-left: 2%;
}

@media ( min-width :599px) {
  .itemClass {
    width: 49%;
    margin: 0 2% 1em 0;
  }
}

@media ( min-width :599px) and (max-width:1024px) {
  .itemClass:nth-child(2n + 2) {
    margin: 0 0 1em 0;
  }
}

@media ( min-width :1024px) {
  .itemClass {
    width: 24%;
    margin: 0 1.3333333333% 1em 0;
  }
  .itemClass:nth-child(4n + 4) {
    margin: 0 0 1em 0;
  }
}

I couldn't explain vendor prefixes any better than the answer here! So give that a read.
And a little more information: http://shouldiprefix.com/

Thanks for your answer, I am quite confused where should I use these? which parts of code should be changed? whats your idea about Ezhil_UI-Developer's answer? — Jack, Jun 24 '15 at 23:28

Add float:left to ".itemClass"

     .itemClass {
      float: left;
      }

It works thanks would you tell me the reasoning behind this. – Jack Jun 24 '15 at 05:52
Because in safari ".itemClass" occupy full width of the sceen . if u adds flot:left. it will occupy the correct width. – ItzMe_Ezhil Jun 24 '15 at 06:18
I see why it does not occupy full width of the screen in firefox? – Jack Jun 24 '15 at 06:26
This works because `display:flex` needs prefixes (-webkit) for Safari as well as IE. So `flex` isn't working on Safari as the CSS stands. When you add the `float:left`, it's then applying a rule and approach to horizontal lists. Nothing wrong with it, just a different approach. If you commit to using float, then you should remove any mention of `flex` and `flex-wrap`. – Jason Lydon Jun 24 '15 at 15:26
