CSS CSS Foundations Advanced Selectors UI Element States Pseudo-Classes

stuck on ui element states pseudo-classes quiz

here is what its asking me to do:

Now, create an attribute selector that targets input elements with a type value ofradio. In the same selector, add the :checked pseudo class, then use a combinator to target the label that is an immediate sibling of a radio button. Set the color to blueand the font weight to bold.

and here is the code im trying to input:

input[type="radio"]:checked = label { color: blue; font-weight: bold; }

I thought i had it right? help would be much appreciated! thanks!

:checked + label is what you'll need. The + is the combinator for siblings.

totally worked! thanks!

It's the :checked = label that has you messed up. It's asking for the combinator selector for immediate siblings which is >

So it should read input[type="radio"]:checked > label

according to the question description.

just tried changing to the > and it wouldn't go through either
