Why is this incorrect?

In one of the tests under CSS/THE BOX MODEL I keep getting told this is incorrect.

Display the links in the nav as inline block elements.

// In the css

nav a {display: inline-block;}

Sorry something was wrong. I knew it was correct but couldn't figure out why it was telling me it was incorrect. I think it was because of the default comment on the css page in code pen

Yeah, in CSS comments have to be /* wrapped like this */ //This won't work.

SASS allows for traditional //commenting

I was able to get it to work by leaving off the word "nav".

a { display:inline-block; }
