Quiz Question - Media Queries

"Write a media directive for screen media with orientation landscape. Within the directive, set the width attribute for all image tags to 360px." is the question: I'm writing

@media only screen and (min-device-width : 768px) and (max-device-width : 1024px) and (orientation : landscape) { img { width: 360px; } }

and getting an error message. "Bummer! You should specify a media type of 'screen'."

I am stating what type of screen. Could you please explain this further?

Hi Brandon,

We have to follow the question only without extra codes in organizing way. If adding more codes, we might receive errors. This worked for me below.

@media screen and (orientation:landscape) {
    img {
    width: 360px;
  }
}

Just do simple. ;)
