Code not working in css

copyright {

border-top: 8px solid #2a0400;
padding: 10px 0;
margin: 15px 0;
text-align: center;

}

I've type the above code the same as in the video, yet in my browser window when I refresh the page the code does not work nothing changes. I've saved the page, I even opened the finished CSS file you can download and copy and pasted that piece of code and it still doesn't load correctly. I can't figure out why?

Never mind, I figured out what was wrong. The = sign in my html code was missing from the id line for that tag.
