Additional Psuedo-Classes challenge bug. "Create a new rule that selects the 3rd list item only. Set the background color to the HEX value FF6347."

I know there are multiple posts on this, but none have solved my question.

I am pretty sure there is a bug in the CSS Foundations "Advanced Selectors: Additional Psuedo-Classes" challenge. The challenge is...

"Create a new rule that selects the 3rd list item only. Set the background color to the HEX value FF6347."

Previous task being the first style...

li:nth-child(even) { color: white; background-color: black; }

li:nth-child(3) { background-color: #ff6347; }

I get a "Bummer: null" statement back.

Looks like this code challenge is currently broken.

The best way to get help for for this (and generally things that don't seem to be working right) is to contact support directly by emailing help@teamtreehouse.com

Chris,

As I mentioned in the other thread, the problematic changes have been rolled back. Thanks for the detailed report; that helped us pinpoint the issue quickly!
