My contact icons are not appearing...

I've read through the forum, but still can't identify what's wrong with my code...

<ul class="contact-info">
          <li class:"phone"><a href="tel:555-1212">555-1212</a></li>
          <li class:"mail"><a href="mailto:rob@robgrennan.com">rob@robgrennan.com</a></li>
          <li class:"twitter"><a href="http://twitter.com/intent/tweet?screen_name=nannergbor">@nannergbor</a></li>
        </ul>

.contact-info li.phone a {
  background-image: url('../img/phone.png');
}

.contact-info li.mail a {
  background-image: url('../img/mail.png');
}

.contact-info li.twitter a {
  background-image: url('../img/twitter.png');
}

I just tweaked your question too so that the code was easier to read in the post.

Here's how to do it if you need to in future :)

Hi Rob,

Try replacing:

<ul class="contact-info">
          <li class:"phone"><a href="tel:555-1212">555-1212</a></li>
          <li class:"mail"><a href="mailto:rob@robgrennan.com">rob@robgrennan.com</a></li>
          <li class:"twitter"><a href="http://twitter.com/intent/tweet?screen_name=nannergbor">@nannergbor</a></li>
        </ul>

with:

<ul class="contact-info">
          <li class="phone"><a href="tel:555-1212">555-1212</a></li>
          <li class="mail"><a href="mailto:rob@robgrennan.com">rob@robgrennan.com</a></li>
          <li class="twitter"><a href="http://twitter.com/intent/tweet?screen_name=nannergbor">@nannergbor</a></li>
        </ul>

Notice the equal signs in place of the colon. Hope that helps :)
