I'm stuck on a quiz. I'm supposed to be setting the background color of my list items in CSS, but it's not working.

Here is my code. I don't see what I'm doing wrong.

/*********************************************************** GALLERY **********************************************************/

gallery {

margin: 0; padding: 0; list-style: none; }

gallery li {

float: left; width: 45%; margin: 2.5%; background-color: #f5f5f5 color: #bdc3c7; }

gallery li a p {

margin: 0; padding: 5%; font-size: 0.75em; color: #bdc3c7 }

You are missing a semi colon after your background color and before your font color background-color: #f5f5f5 color:
