Using clockwise notation to specify the padding of an element: can you help me

Tell us what’s happening:

I'm having trouble with this notation not working...can you assist me? Thanks...Ren

**Your code so far**

<style>
.injected-text {
  margin-bottom: -25px;
  text-align: center;
}

.box {
  border-style: solid;
  border-color: black;
  border-width: 5px;
  text-align: center;
}

.yellow-box {
  background-color: yellow;
  padding: 20px 40px 20px 40px;
}

.red-box {
  background-color: crimson;
  color: #fff;
  padding: 20px 40px 20px 40px;
}

.blue-box {
  background-color: blue;
  color: #fff; padding: 40px;20px;20px;40px;
}

<h5 class="injected-text">margin</h5>

Challenge: Use Clockwise Notation to Specify the Padding of an Element

Link to the challenge:

You have this:

.blue-box {
  background-color: blue;
  color: #fff; padding: 40px;20px;20px;40px;
}

But the semicolon (;) should only go after the last one. For example, if I wanted this:

margin: 1px 2px 3px 4px;

Notice that there is only one semicolon, after the last margin. You put one after every padding. Also, I don’t think it is required for the test but it should probably be on its own line and there should be spaces between each value, for readability.

When I fix that, it passes for me.

Thank you so much Mr. Smith…I am onward with more studying soon.
