CSS

Needing some help with my CSS validator. When I attempt to validate my CSS this is the error that I receive and I'm not sure why:

80 nav ul Value Error : margin Parse Error margin 80 nav ul Parse Error 0 10px; 90 Parse Error [: 0; } /*************************** this makes my navigation horizontal instead of vertical. ******************************/ nav li]

Here's my code for lines 78-82:

nav ul {
  list-style: none;
  margin; 0 10px;
  padding: 0;
}

Here's my code for lines 90-92:

nav li {
  display: inline-block;          
}

Trying to figure out what I did wrong? Thanks in advance!

You have a syntax error on line 80 by accidentally adding a semicolon after margin instead of a colon. That might be causing validation errors after that line as well.

Thanks Kelly! That was one of the issues. Have any idea why line 90 is giving me an error?

If you need to have the li elements stacked instead of horizontal I would use display: block instead of the inline-block.
