hey greg, you're nearly there - you just missed to give the left and right margin a unit value. right now you say 10 - the task was to give them 10px - I guess you already know now how to solve it ;)

at the end it should look like this:

nav ul { margin: 0 10px 0 10px; }

or the short version:

nav ul{ margin: 0 10px ; }

hope that helps and have a nice day ;)

Thanks man, devil in the details! appreciate the respone!
