Putting relative paths inside URL

Hi.

I'm struggling with Task 4 of this code challenge. It tells me to put the relative path inside the URL. Here's the code I've written:

body {
  font-family: 'Nunito', sans-serif;
  color: #faf3bc;
  background: #420600 url('img/bg-texture.jpg') repeat;
}

I've gone over the CSS with a fine-tooth comb but I can't find anything wrong with the code. Upon posting this, I notice the hashes and single quotes are highlighted in orange, which tells me something is up, but I can't figure out what. I'd really appreciate some help here.

Thanks.

Sean

Hi Sean,

The image filename is "texture.png"

Your code is fine, the highlighter is just wrong.

Thanks for your contribution. Tried that. It still won't accept it.

Is this it Jason?

body {
  font-family: 'Nunito', sans-serif;
  color: #faf3bc;
  background: #420600 url('img/bg-texture.png') repeat;
}

I've typed it and it still says it's wrong.

You're using bg-texture.png but it's texture.png

Try dropping the bg-
