adding classes container and clear fix

The challenge was to add a div around the featured-cupcake element and give it the classes container and clear fix. I wrote the following which is wrong because it doesn't have any classes applied to my new div. What did I do wrong?

<div class=“container clearfix”> <div id="featured-cupcake"> <h2>Cupcake of the Week</h2> <img src="img/featured-cupcake.jpg"> </div> </div>

For the challenges, make sure you check your spelling and type exactly as they ask you to.

classes need to be a string with no spaces. If there is a space between clear and fix. the document is looking for class "clear" and "fix" not "clear fix"

Hi Ardyce

It doesn't look like your code is showing up correctly, you might want to check out this thread for how to format code in forum posts.
