1,462 PointsError on CSS Validation
They say that
wrapper Value Error : padding only 0 can be a length. You must put a unit after your number : 9 5%
wrapper {
max-width: 949px; margin: 0 auto; padding: 9 5%;
}
But I don't understand what other unit is suppose to be their? I've followed the tutorial!

14,345 PointsThat error is telling you that you can't have a non-zero value for padding without following it with a unit of measurement such as %, em, px, etc. Zero is allowed because zero is zero regardless of the unit of measure.
In your code you have
padding: 9 5%;
That 9 is not allowed without a unit of measure. In this specific case I think you just typed the wrong number. That 9 should be a 0.
