Not sure what is wrong with my code. Usually a syntax error but I’ve checked a ton of times. Few instructions and no examples to compare and see why it isn’t taking my answer. Any help is appreciated.

  **Your code so far**


<style>
.container {
  font-size: 1.5em;
  min-height: 300px;
  width: 100%;
  background: LightGray;
  display: grid;
  grid-template-columns: auto 1fr;
  grid-template-rows: auto 1fr auto;
  grid-gap: 10px;
  grid-template-areas:
    "advert header"
    "advert content"
    "advert footer";
}
.item1 {
  background: LightSkyBlue;
  grid-area: header;
}

.item2 {
  background: LightSalmon;
  grid-area: advert;
}

.item3 {
  background: PaleTurquoise;
  grid-area: content;
  /* Only change code below this line */
display: grid;
grid-template-columns: auto, 1fr;
  /* Only change code above this line */
}

.item4 {
  background: lightpink;
  grid-area: footer;
}

.itemOne {
  background: PaleGreen;
}

.itemTwo {
  background: BlanchedAlmond;
}

</style>

<div class="container">
<div class="item1">header</div>
<div class="item2">advert</div>
<div class="item3">
  <div class="itemOne">paragraph1</div>
  <div class="itemTwo">paragraph2</div>
</div>
<div class="item4">footer</div>
</div>

What do the failing tests say?

It tells me that the Item3 class should have a grid-template-columns property with auto and 1fr as values.

I thought thats what my code reflects but I cannot pass :frowning:

You have an comma in that line that doesn’t belong there.

That was in fact the issue. Thank you for your quick help. I do wish freeCodeCamp gave more explanation for why some values need commas and others do not.
