Shadows not working.

Text works with x/y/color (horizontal, vertical, color) values but spread and blur values cause it to go back to default text (shadows are removed). Border shadow's are not showing up at all for the .wildlife div.

Here is an example of the code I'm using on my CSS (This property IS within the .wildlife element's curly brackets) box-shadow: inset 0px 0px 5px rgba(0,0,0 1);

I have made no other modifications to the code and I am using the workspace provided by this lecture. Any thoughts?

You should put ',' comma characters between blue and transparency parameter in rgba function

box-shadow: inset 0px 0px 5px rgba(0,0,0,1);
