I,m writing: .contact-info ul { font-size: 0.9em; margin: 0; padding: 0; list-style: none; }
And it shows me that my font-size should be 0.9em... This code works on a website. Is it challenge error or is it my code?

ul.contact-info{ font-size: 0.9em; margin: 0; padding: 0; list-style: none; }
Notice how ul is specified 1st. This says to the browser 'Get the unordered list with the class of contact-info'.
This can also be written as simply:
.contact-info{ font-size: 0.9em; margin: 0; padding: 0; list-style: none; }
This says to the browser 'Get the element with the class of contact-info'.
Both of these examples will work, but the 1st more is a bit more specific.
Hope this helps! :)
