Padding problem in code challenge.

I am getting an error saying the top padding must be set to 15 pixels. I've gone through a few times and cant figure out where I'm going wrong.

Here is my code:

nav li {
  display: inline-block;
  font-weight: 800;
  padding: 15px 10px;
}

Hi Jason,

In task 4 it switches to links inside the nav element. The font-weight and padding should be applied to links within the nav element and not the list items.
