-"Attribute Selectors to Style Elements" -

So, I have only been doing this for a few days so there is a big chance it is something simple I am missing. My problem is
-Using the type attribute selector, try to give the checkboxes in Cat Photo App a top margin of 10px and a bottom margin of 15px.
And I thought I had solved it but I keep running the code and it is still incorrect. And I have gone through so many posts of people having the same problem but I still can’t get it. What am I doing wrong?
Your code so far

HI @amberalert !

Welcome to the forum!

This is a common mistake but the type selector should target a checkbox(singular)
Not checkboxes(plural)
