535 PointsCSS ID Selector
The editor is not accepting the following css selector for the copyright id. I can't see anything wrong with it. What am I doing wrong?
copyright {border-top: 8px color:#2A0400;}

Take a look at here for reference: http://www.w3schools.com/cssref/css_selectors.asp

535 PointsThanks for the response William. I have put the # symbol before copyright but the treehouse editor doesn't recognize it. It also got removed for some reason when I posted the discussion.

7,829 PointsI am not certain why the editor doesnt recognise it. Looking at your code, you need a semi-colon after "8px". This will separate the two commands. The editor should then understand?

535 PointsThanks, still no joy. There seems to be other posts by people who have had the same problem with the # not being recognised. I'll investigate.
