Design a Parent Teacher Conference Form - Step 35

HTML-CSS
1

Tell us what’s happening:

Hi all, I am trying to complete the new parent/teacher form workshop in the responsive dev certificate, but cannot get past step #35. My code keeps failing on Set the border property to none, despite having that defined below. Has anyone else run into this?

Your code so far

/* file: styles.css */
/* User Editable Region */

.submit-btn {
  cursor: pointer;
  background-color: royalblue;
  color: whitesmoke;
  border: none;
  border-radius: 6px;
  padding: 12px 20px;
}

/* User Editable Region */

Welcome back @rachel.gilbert,

Your solution works from my end. Please try one of the following steps to move forward.

Click on the “Restart Step” button and force a refresh of your page with CTRL + F5 then try to paste the code in again.

or - Try the step in incognito or private mode.

or - Disable any/all extensions that interface with the freeCodeCamp website (such as Dark Mode, Ad Blockers, or Spellcheckers), and set your browser zoom level to 100%. Both of these factors can cause tests to fail erroneously.

or - Ensure your browser is up-to-date or try a different browser.

I hope one of these will work for you.

Happy coding!

Thank you so much, @dhess! Switching to FireFox solved this behavior for me. :saluting_face:

Hey,

I figured I post specifically here, since there is a solution posted here.

.submit-btn {
  cursor: pointer;
  background-color: royalblue;
  color: whitesmoke;
  border: none;
  border-radius: 6px;
  padding: 12px 20px;
}

All mentioned solutions did not work for me:

I tried using Microsoft Edge (which i never use, nor has it any extensions). I updated it after I tried it the first time and also did the “restart & CTRL+F5” after the update, but before I tried again.
Also tried using an Incognito-window in Chrome.

Things I tried with the code itself:

  • Different border values: 0; 0 none; none; hidden;
  • Rearranging properties (border first, border-radius before border)
  • Adding pointer, background-color, color, whitesmoke, border one-by-one and pressed check your code on each one. It stopped recognizing at border.
  • I also tried removing everything else inside the styles.css except the required code for this step. also no luck.
  • I rewrote everything in the Declaration Block 3 or 4 times.
  • I checked if there was a typo in the index specifying the class (which should have been set automatically on step entry anyway)
body {
  background-color: MidnightBlue;
  color: whitesmoke;

.container {
    background-color: #ffffff1a;
    width: 80%;
    max-width: 600px;

    padding: 10px 20px;
