How do I use a combinator to target the label that is an immediate sibling of a radio button?

I am having trouble with a section of the following challenge:

Now, create an attribute selector that targets input elements with a type value of radio. In the same selector, add the :checked pseudo class, then use a combinator to target the label that is an immediate sibling of a radio button. Set the color to blue and the font weight to bold.

This is what I have tried:

input [type="radio"] :checked + label { color: blue; font-weight: bold; }

Hi jprola,

You have to get rid of the 2 spaces you have after input and before :checked.

With the spaces you have created a descendant selector.

input[type="radio"]:checked + label {

Thanks for the help!!!
