Challenge: Learn CSS Colors by Building a Set of Colored Markers - Step 14

confused on what I’m doing wrong

2

Your issue is that you placed your two divs inside this marker div which is incorrect

I would suggest resetting the lesson and place your two marker divs below the marker div.
then it will pass

3

thank you so much !!! i’ll let you know if it works

4

i’m sorry i guess i’m just a little confused by what you mean. could you elaborate/show an example? thanks again

5

So you wrote this which is incorrect

but the lesson wants you to place the two marker divs below the first one

  <div class="marker">
  </div>
PLACE OTHER TWO DIVS HERE

hope that is clearer

6

thank youuuu!! again i’ll let you know if this works

7

unfortunately it didnt work, im so confused now, im sure i did what you said but now it’s just saying " Your new div elements should be within the div with the class container ."

It would help to see your new code so we can see the issue and help

When you enter a code block into a forum post, please precede it with a separate line of three backticks and follow it with a separate line of three backticks to make it easier to read.

You can also use the “preformatted text” tool in the editor (</>) to add backticks around text.

See this post to find the backtick on your keyboard.
Note: Backticks (`) are not single quotes (').
