SOLVED: City Skyline - Step 60 - Repeating-linear-gradient

HTML-CSS

I’m filling in .bb3 with a repeating-linear-gradient. I’ve checked the work in the next step and I don’t seem to have a typo that I can see. Any help with this one?

  **Your code so far**

Hi Dylan,

It appears you have an extra curly brace in your CSS code and you need to put a semi-colon after the parenthesis.
I’ve just passed that step, here is my code, copy paste.

background: repeating-linear-gradient(90deg,var(--building-color3),var(--building-color3),var(--window-color3)15%);

Why you have 2 } } ?
delete one of them and remember to always add ; after your css value
: linear-gradient() ;
or the following css property will count as a value to the previous unclosed css property

my suggestion is go with straight line when working on this challenge iv got few bugs also when i did it your way . unlike vs code , this website doesn’t auto fix the places during coding

so go like this : linear-gradient(90deg, color1, color2);
