So on the 'Add Iconography' section of the understanding HTML and CSS, I have added all the code as per Nick's video and (this time) checked on Firefox, Safari and Chrome but still can't get the following code to render correctly:
.contact-info { display: block; min-height: 20px; background-repeat: no-repeat; background-size: 20px 20px; padding: 0 0 0 30px; margin: 0 0 10px; }
url = http://web-ehvcgmdxx3.treehouse-app.com/contact.html
Probably me being a complete numpty, but (more) help would be much appreciated...

Courses Plus Student 12,453 PointsHi Michael Hemmins Having a quick looking at your URL, and using Code Inspector in Chrome, it would appear the styles need to be applied to the A not the UL. So I would take the background-repeat, background-size and padding off the UL, and put it under UL A (or .contact-info A)

2,797 PointsThanks Caroline, I'll try that, but the code is the same that Nick uses in the video, which is why I'm confused as to why it doesn't work...

2,797 PointsGot it! Should have been .contact-info li a {} Missed the li and a elements. Thank you for making me look again. Talk about not seeing the wood for the trees :-D
