HTML How to Make a Website Styling Web Pages and Navigation Create a Horizontal List of Links

padding margins, need help

This is task 4 of 4 Select the links inside the nav element and set their font weight to 800. Then, set padding on the top and bottom to 15 pixels. Set the padding on the left and right to 10 pixels.

error message received is: The top padding for nav links should be 15px.

I have done it both ways padding: 0 15px 0 15px; and 15px 0 15px 0; Get the same error message no matter what. I did note that it told me to use the previous code I had put in.

css/main.css
a {
  text-decoration: none;
}

#wrapper {
  max-width: 940px;
  margin: 0 auto;
}

#logo {
  text-align: center;
  margin: 0;
}

h1, h2 {
  color: #fff;
}

nav a {
  color: #fff;
}

nav a:hover {
  color: #32673f;
}

nav li { 
   display: inline-block; 
   font-weight: 800;
   padding: 0 15px 0 15px;
 }

nav ul {   
  margin: 0 10px 0 10px;
  padding: 0;
  ]

 h1 {
  font-family: Changa One, sans-serif;
  font-size: 1.75em;
  font-weight: normal;
}

img {
  max-width: 100%;
}

#gallery {
  margin: 0;
  padding: 0;
  list-style: none;
}

#gallery li {
  float: left;
  width: 45%;
  margin: 2.5%;
  background-color: #f5f5f5;
  color: #bdc3c7;
}

This is what I did: av li { display: inline-block; font-weight: 800; padding: 0 15px; }

and still get message top margin set to 15px.
