@media screen and (max-width: 500px) {
.menu ul li {
text-align: center;
}
}
Hope that helped :)

Courses Plus Student 94,592 PointsHi Diane,
The only issue is that the ul
is the element with the id
of "menu". You have it set up as if the ul
is within another element that has an id of menu.
You would want to use ul#menu
or #menu
and remove the nested ul
block.
#menu {
li {
@media screen and (max-width: 500px) {
text-align: center;
}
}
}

8,437 PointsStill getting bummer error, even with that.
Open a scope on an <ul> with the ID menu. Inside that, open a scope on a <li> element. Using Sass nesting, add a media query so that the <li> elements will have an attribute of text-align: center when the media is screen and the <li> has a max-width of 500px.
I tried to follow word for word, but it gets pretty confusing.

10,288 Pointsoh very strange!
I'll try to figure out an answer for you but I know what you mean it could be confusing at times.

16,380 PointsLooks like you referenced the "menu" class while Diane was referencing the id instead, not sure which one is actually right since I don't know the code challenge specifically, but that is kind of a crucial difference.
