Code challenge: advanced mixin arguments. Task 1.

Task 1 of the final SASS module states:

Create a mixin called "square" that takes two arguments - one called "size" that will set the height and the width, and one called "color" that will set the color of a 1px solid border.

My answer is as follows:

@mixin square($size, $color: 1px solid) {
    height: $size;
  width: $size;
  border: $color;
  }

The error message I receive says:

Bummer! You should set the border to be 1px wide, and solid.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

PSA: It's Sass not SASS ... remember only you can prevent over-capitalization

Hai ,

your code should be

@mixin square($size, $color) {
    height: $size;
  width: $size;
  border: 1px solid $color;
  }
