Design a Parent Teacher Conference Form - Step 35

Hi Buddy, Here your code works for me so.

Kindly so refresh the page and then then do put the code again.

did not work. what browser are you using

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.

i reloaded, restarted, got rid of extensions, did it on incognito, and tried 3 different browsers: brave, chrome, edge

and you can really see my desperation considering i tried to use edge

will soon be trying on a new device with an entirely different internet connection to see if it makes a difference at all

I do understand your frustration, and I have created a ticket for this because you are not the only person who has written perfect code for this step but can’t get it to pass without jumping through hoops.

I will say that one person reported success switching to Firefox.

I suspect this is an issue with the CSS selector that uses the transition property since that creates a timing issue with the tests. But if you were to remove it, the tests would probably fail because the starting code changed.

Edit: Tried submitting the code after removing that transition property — and it worked!! Give that a try and please let us know if that works for you.

It isn’t working. This is surely a bug in the grader. Please review the grader/console that tests the code. Everyone is facing this issue.

As stated above, the issue has been reported:

thank you for the reply but did not work still. i tried on different internet connections and entirely different devices. am going to hope the bug gets fixed soon.

I understand your frustration. This bug is in the way for a lot of users. Did you try this step in the Firefox browser. Some users have reported success with that. If that doesn’t work either, just move on to the next step for now until this is fixed.

Thank you for your patience.
