Learn CSS Colors by Building a Set of Colored Markers - Step 49

HTML-CSS

Tell us what’s happening:
This should be a simple step of changing the property background-color to background in the .red class. It doesn’t seem to work. I’ve tried numerous times and have checked my code in Visual Studio Code, where it works fine. I’ve even had a systems engineer walk me through the steps several times, concluding that it must be a bug.
Have we overlooked something?
