Front End Web Development Techdegree Student 9,313 PointsWhy isn't it accepting the nested element and & in this challenge?
It appears that everything is spelled correctly, nested well, yet it's not accepting it as a valid response.
Where's the error in the code?
Thanks in advance!

So within the rule for ".icn", the code "&.icn-success" would expand to ".icn.icn-success".
To create the selector ".icn-success", you would just write "&-success".
