"The border around your img element should be green."

HTML-CSS

Tell us what’s happening:
I don’t know what’s wrong with my code, the image appears with a green border as intended but it is still not being accepted. Little help?

Your code so far


<link href="https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Lobster" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css">
<style>
.red-text {
  color: red;
}

h2 {
  font-family: Lobster, monospace;
}

p {
  font-size: 16px;
  font-family: monospace;
}

.smaller-image {
  width: 100px;
}

.thick-green-border {
  border-color: green;
  border-width: 10px;
  border-style: solid;
}

</style>

<h2 class="red-text">CatPhotoApp</h2>

Challenge: Add Borders Around Your Elements

Your code passes when I run it. Do you have any browser extensions that change the appearance of websites (such as a “dark mode” extension)?

4

Yes I use dark mode, should I disable it?

5

No, in the instructions it explicitly says to type “thick-green-border”.

6

Ok I disabled dark mode for a moment, pressed to run the tests and it worked, why is that? I’d like to keep my dark mode if possible.

7

The reason your tests won’t pass is because your extension is changing the colors, so when a test checks to see an element is the right color it won’t be. freeCodeCamp has a native dark mode. If you don’t want to turn off your extension, then many of the CSS tests will not pass.

8

I see, I just set the native dark mode and made this site an exception for my regular dark mode, thank you very much!

Glad I could help. Happy coding!
