Could somebody explain to me what I;m doing wrong here, I'm very confused.
Instructions: Add a new attribute selector that will target the input element with the type attribute value text. Set the background color to lightyellow.
/* My CSS Code */
a[title] {
color: darkred;
}
input[type="text"] {
background-color: lightyellow:
}
