Unable to set orange color in CSS property

HTML-CSS
1

What’s wrong in the following code?

.bb1d {
width: 100%;
height: 70%;
background-color: var(–building-color1);
background: linear-gradient(to bottom, orange, var(–building-color1), var(–window-color1));

}

It’s saying me repeatedly to set orange as the 1st colour. Even though it’s already

The instructions did not ask you to add the to bottom.

Your variable names should lack some “dashes.”

Why do you have this?
