11,447 PointsIn a challenge I have to change the font size and for some reason I can't get it right..
It tells me to set it to 0.9em so this is the code that I write:
font-size: 0.9em;
I'm pretty sure this correct but it's telling me it's not.

11,447 PointsFor some odd reason in the selector i put:
.contact-info ul {}
When I erased the "ul" it worked fine. Thank you for your reply!

Courses Plus Student 27,349 PointsWhen you type....
.contact-info ul {}
You are telling css to go to the class called contact-info and INSIDE that class, find a ul.
When you removed the ul and made your code like so...
.contact-info {}
You are simply telling CSS to select a class called contact-info, not go to a class called contact-info and look inside it
It's all in the order in which you type it and what you include for it to "select" thereafter :)

11,940 PointsAre you sure you've added the selector for the unordered list with with class "contact-info"?
Could you post your code, as well as the error the challenge gives you? That would be very helpful.
