hey there ! you just have to select the anchor elements that are inside the contact-info class, and display in blocks !

.contact-info a {
      display: block;
}

Ayoub is CLOSE, here's what you want to do:

.contact-info > a {
  display: block;
}

The ">" selector in this case is basically telling the CSS "target all anchor tags that are children of the .contact-info class".

..... actually I take that back, Ayoub is correct as well, my example is just more specific to DIRECT children so not sure who downvoted the previous example; from what I can see it should be right (gave you an upvote to even you out at 0).

hey ! actually Tyler Anyan, in this stage where he is, he doesnt even know what a child selector is, I answered according to the level where he is now ;) ! and in the challenge, that is exactly what he is asked to do !

Ya, I saw that after I made my comment, in a way both methods are correct depending on what you want to do but my example would only target direct children. Either way though not sure why someone downvoted you, answer is correct.

yeah, if he reached the advanced selectors, your answer would be the more appropriate :) ! no idea btw ! hhhhh
