Learn Basic CSS by Building a Cafe Menu - Step 78

Tell us what’s happening:
I just dont get it. It says ‘‘Moving down to the footer element, make sure all the text have a value of 14px for the font size.’’ I don’t know what I am supposed to do here. There is no example for what I am supposed to do.

My code so far:

<!-- file: index.html -->
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
  <head>
    <meta charset="utf-8" />
    <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0" />
    <title>Cafe Menu</title>
    <link href="styles.css" rel="stylesheet"/>
  </head>
  <body>
    <div class="menu">

You target the footer element in CSS just like you would target any other element. You’ve already writen CSS targeting the h1 and h2 elements. Use those as examples. Speaking of those element, you also set the font size for them as well. So they are the perfect examples for this step.

ohh i see. so i need to remove the dot

thanks, i dont know how i could overlook something as simple as that

The important thing here is to understand what that dot was doing and why you don’t need it.

i think the dot is when its a class, right?

Yes, that’s exactly right. In this case you wanted to target the element footer, not the class footer.
