Code challenge for last question regarding bottom margin of 10px

hi, on the last question for setting the bottom margin to 10px, i have it set and then tried changing the list thinking it wanted that instead. I keep getting it marked wrong and I don't know what it's wanting.

.contact-info {
  list-style: none;
  padding: 0;
  margin: 0 0 10px;   /* i tried this in case it wanted a different area. */
  font-size: 0.9em;
}  

.contact-info a {
  display: block;
  min-height: 20px; 
  background-repeat: no-repeat;
  background-size: 20px 20px;
  padding: 0 0 0 30px;
  margin 0 0 10px;
}

Hi Karen,

You have a very easy to miss issue in your code and that's a missing colon after margin, very small things such as that are hard to find sometimes but the easiest way I find of debugging CSS is removing the code and rewriting it when it fails to work.

See the below.

.contact-info {
  list-style: none;
  padding: 0;
  margin: 0;
  font-size: 0.9em;
}  

.contact-info a {
  display: block;
  min-height: 20px; 
  background-repeat: no-repeat;
  background-size: 20px 20px;
  padding: 0 0 0 30px;
  margin: 0 0 10px;
}

Happy coding.
