Transition Code chanllenge

.box { border-radius: 15px; background: #4682B4; -webkit-transition-timing-function: linear; -webkit-transition-duration: 2s; -webkit-transition-delay: 1s; }

.box:hover { background: #F08080; border-radius: 50%; }

Trying to understand why is this wrong. Someone?

You're missing which property to transition using transition-property. If you leave this off then it defaults to all and both the background and the border-radius would transition.

-webkit-transition-property: border-radius; using the individual properties.

Or you specify all properties together using the shorthand transition property:

-webkit-transition: border-radius 2s linear 1s;

Hello Boon!

Your problem here is that you are not assigning WHAT to transition.

add a 

-webkit-transition: background;

to make a transition for the background color.

You need to add the actual transition. All you've done so far is telling it how the transition should behave, without having defined a transition.

-webkit-transition: border-radius 2s;

If you add the above to your code, it will work properly (Note that the transition will take 2 seconds in this case. Of course this can be changed to your liking).
