CSS Attribute Selectors

HTML-CSS
1

I am not sure what I am doing wrong…

The task is: Using the type attribute selector, try to give the checkboxes in CatPhotoApp a top margin of 10px and a bottom margin of 15px.

I set up the type attribute to radio, set up the margins and I keep getting:
The type attribute selector should be used to select the checkboxes.
The top margins of the checkboxes should be 10px.
The bottom margins of the checkboxes should be 15px.

What is the problem?

Thank you!

you are styling the radio buttons, when you should be styling the checkboxes, which don’t have a type="radio" attribute

the example is just an example, not the solution - but you need to do something similar
