Im trying to submit the first code challenge of selecting the body and making it lightblue. I previewed my work and the body did change light blue, but I am unable to pass this section. I had a similar experience in the HTMLvtable code challenge on question 2 asking for a table header. I had to skip the challenge and complete the rest of the section. Do you have any tips or best practices to for the code challenges? My CSS code is below.
'''CSS body { color:lightblue; } '''

"" body { background: lightblue; }
