background color problem

When i add the padding I lose the background color???

a { text-decoration:none; }

wrapper {

max-width: 940px; margin: 0 auto; padding: 0 5%: background: orange; }

It looks like after you set the padding value, you are using a colon " :" not " ;"

Try:

'''CSS

wrapper { Padding: 0 5%; Background-color: orange; } '''
