Be sure to set the font size to 0.9em

Here is my code : .contact-info ul { font-size:0.9em; }

However the result still fails stating, "Be sure to set the font size to 0.9em. It's frustrating. Please help !

The instructions are to select the "ul" with the class "contact-info." This means that there is a "ul" in the document that has been given the class "contact-info." The first time that I did this, I made the same mistake because I was thinking it would be ".contact-info ul", but it is looking simply for the ".contact-info", since that is the class for the "ul" that you are to select. So, simply take out the "ul" because the ".contact-info" is already selecting the "ul", and adding the extra "ul" would be searching for another "ul" with the "contact-info" unordered list as the parent.

First you need to select the ul with the class contact-info. Not the ul's in the class contact-info. Then you need to set your margins and paddings to 0 (zero). After that set your list-style to none.

task 1 states: Select the unordered list with the class contact-info and set the font size to 0.9em. Then, remove all margin, padding, and list styling.

your current selector selects unordered lists that are descendants of elements with a class of contact info. you need to select unordered lists with a class of contact info. to select elements with specific classes you can use something like this (in this example I select an h1with a class of some-class):

h1.some-class { }

you also forgot to set the margin, padding, and list styling as well
