Glitches with Code Challenge

Anyone else having glitches with the Stage 13 media queries code challenge? Same code passes so long as I manually type in everything instead of copying and pasting background color from instructions. If I use my 10 keypad instead of the other numbers above my keyboard it won't pass and I have to start the entire code challenge over.

Hi Liz,

Is this happening on task 1? If you want to post the exact steps you're taking that triggers an error I'll give it a try.

I passed task 1 with the following:

@media screen and (max-width: 768px) {
  body {
    background: #FF6347;
    color: white;
  }
}

I typed the "768" on the numpad. I copy/pasted the hex code "#FF6347" and I copy/pasted the color "white" from the instructions. The code challenge shouldn't care how you got the text in there as long as it's the right text.

It's ok I got it to pass. My code was correct, it was just being glitchy.
