Responsive Website Task Error

My solution for the challenge task "Flexible videos with fitvid" in Advanced Techniques for How To Build a Responsive Website doesn't seem to work. It asks: "Using the unique ID defined within the fitvid script, add the appropriate code to the div that contains the embedded video so it scales with the fluid layout.". My solution is: <div id="featured-video"> <iframe ...> </iframe> </div> and it prompts me saying that my ID might be wrong. Please help!

The div that contains the video is where you need to be adding the "featured-video" as seen below. Also in the future when you post code, if you indent the code 4 spaces, it will format it so you don't have to use things like parenthesis. Good luck, let me know if you have any other questions.

<div id="featured-video" class="grid_6 omega">
<iframe src="http://player.vimeo.com/video/50610288?title=0&amp;byline=0&amp;portrait=0" width="400" height="225" frameborder="0"></iframe>     
</div>

(div id="featured-video")

(iframe ...)(/iframe)

(/div)

Substitute () for <>

This is my solution (it didn't appear in my main post) and for some reason it isn't right.

Thanks Aaron! I tried nearly every combination but that I guess. It was a bit unclear because in the video she adds the <div id="featured-video"> separately, not within any existing div element.

Welcome to treehouse, many of the quizzes and code challenges are worded poorly and you will find that you become stumped as a result of this more times than not.
