18,138 Pointsissue with ID selection on mac?
When I'm trying to select my ID to format with CSS, the '#' seems to format things in pink (like for hexadecimal color) and the challenge does not recognize that I am trying to select my 'copyright' ID. Is this a known issue?
I'm working on a macbook pro, if that matters

^copyright does not seem to be recognized as the ID. Any ideas?
Well I can't get this to format correctly in this box. Without quotes I get copyright in bold and larger with no pound sign, and with them everything falls on one line.

6,358 PointsIt is normal that the id selectors are formatted in pink; it looks the same for me. I was able to get this to work by using your code but with the correct color selected. The color for this exercise should be #2A0400 not #2A0200
