Stuck: Build a Responsive Website - Advanced Techniques

The question says: Using the unique ID defined within the fitvid script ("#featured-video"), add the appropriate code to the div that contains the embedded video so it scales with the fluid layout.

Im pretty sure its referring to something in this: 

<div class="container">
        <div 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>

I have tried changing the div class "grid_6 omega" to an div id "featured-video", didn't work. I have tried putting the id "featured-video" in the iframe tag, didn't work. I have tried changing the container so that it has the div id is "featured-video"

I dont think its an issue in the style.css...

Thank you everyone who took the time to read my question. Love the site so far. -Jackson

Add this to the div with the classes grid_6 and omega:

id="featured-video"

Like this:

<div class="grid_6 omega" id="featured-video">

Yes! How did you get the code to work? The code will disappear when I type in code.

I did the code fences. The 4 spaces do not work for me.

</div> '''

Not quotes. It's the key under the esc key.

Im not sure where your talking about, to me line 6 would be in the head tag which doesnt work...

I have tried wrapping div id=featured-video around every possible place in the html, but nothing has worked.

The question says "add the appropriate code to the div that contains the embedded video" , so I added the code within the iframe tag itself, around the iframe tag, and within and around every other div in the code. But none of these have worked so far, so I think I need a new approach. I dont think I need to go into the style.css sheet and edit any changes but I could be wrong since no editing in the html has worked yet...
