HTML How to Make a Website Adding Pages to a Website Add and Style Icons

Task 1 of 5 in "Adding pages to a website"

So i'm stuck in this challenge and i have no idea why... This is what is required for me to do on this challenge:

"Select the unordered list with the class contact-info and set the font size to 0.9em. Then, remove all margin, padding, and list styling."

And this is my code:

.contact-info ul {
font-size: 0.9em;
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
list-style: none;
}

And i keep getting an error message saying "Be sure to set the font-size to 0.9em.... This is preventing me from moving along the course, so any help would be much appreciated.

Should be either

ul.contact-info{
font-size: 0.9em;
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
list-style: none;
}

or

.contact-info{
font-size: 0.9em;
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
list-style: none;
}

Hi Bruno,

If the ul was inside an element with the class "contact-info" then your selector would work.

In this case, the challenge states "Select the unordered list with the class contact-info..." So it's saying that the ul has the class "contact-info"

Ah right, dumb me. I just assumed it was the ul inside an element with the contact-info class, and not a ul with the class contact-info. Makes perfect sense now. That's what happens when you don't read things properly!
