Stuck on 3/3...any idea's?

Question:

"Add a new attribute selector that will target the submit button. Set the text color to 'white' and the background color to 'steelblue'"This seems to be correct but keep getting the error on 'white'?

My code:

input[type="submit"] { color: white; background-color: steelblue; }

As far as I can tell it's correct. Try refreshing the page or trying again later.

That looks right -- I just took the quiz and copied and pasted your code and it worked. What is the error message you're getting?
