For whatever reason, the text editor doesn't seem color-responsive when you type the "text-overflow" property, but it looks like you should still be able to pass the challenge with the idea you have.

If it's not passing, paste your code here and I'll take a look.

Hi Julie,

Thanks for getting back to me! The lack of color response here through me off a lot but it seems the real reason I couldn't pass was simply because I miss spelled ellipsis as ellipses. Woops.

Appreciate the help!
