HTML-CSS

Tell us what’s happening:

I used an HTML & CSS validator and both came out correct, but I am still failing tests related to the body element.

  • Failed:10. Your body element should have a top and bottom padding of 50px.

  • Failed:11. Your body element should have a top and bottom margin of 0.

  • Failed:12. Your body element should have a left and right margin of auto.

  • Failed:13. Your body element should set its width using vw.

  • Failed:14. Your body should use calc to set its min-height to 100vh - 100px.

  • 16. The width of your hr elements should be set using a percent value.

Try using margin and padding shorthand. Here’s a link for the margin shorthand. They both work the same.

Please don’t be so hard on yourself. You are learning. And every mistake is an opportunity to learn something.

You learn more from mistakes than doing something perfectly the first time. We’re all here together learning a lot from our mistakes.
