Broken lesson

The question is this:

Select the unordered list with the class contact-info and set the font size to 0.9em. Then, remove all margin, padding, and list styling.

I type this:

.contact-info ul { font-size: 1.9em; margin: 0; padding: 0; list-style: none; }

But get the error this:

Bummer! Be sure to set the font size to 0.9em.

So, I try this:

ul.contact-info { font-size: 1.9em; margin: 0; padding: 0; list-style: none; }

Still get this:

Bummer! Be sure to set the font size to 0.9em.

Is the lesson broken?

your second answer was almost correct

ul.contact-info { font-size: 1.9em; margin: 0; padding: 0; list-style: none; }

however you need to se the font size to 0.9 em, not 1.9

Unless I'm seeing this incorrectly, the font-size you put in your code is 1.9em. It's asking you to change it to 0.9em.

Good spot, Gary. However, that is only a typo in here. It stil gives me the error..

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

Bummer! Be sure to set the font size to 0.9em.
