CSS Code challenge issue

Hello there.

I'm halfway through the CSS course and I can't get past a challenge as it believes that I have made an error in not stating a correct font-size.

Question: 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.

This is what I wrote:

.contact-info { font-size: 0.9em; list-style: none; padding: 0; margin: 0; }

Please advise.

Thank you in advance, n

Hi Neil,

Try this.

.contact-info li { font-size: 0.9em; list-style: none; padding: 0; margin: 0; }

.contact-info { font-size: 0.9em; margin: 0; padding: 0; list-style: none; }

If this is the quiz you did, then your code works, you might have accidentally added something to the code by mistake. But the directions do seem to suggest the unordered list is called contact-info class and it wants you to select the item. Try refreshing browser and putting in the same answer.

I literally copied your code and put it in the bottom the quiz page and it accepted it.

As David Clausen mentioned, your current CSS works fine.

.contact-info { font-size: 0.9em; list-style: none; padding: 0; margin: 0; }

Cheers!
