Oops, try again. Make sure that you use the universal selector * to give a border 1px wide

Language Help CSS
1 
* {
    border: 1px dashed #3A5FCD;
    }

I don’t quite understand what I am doing wrong…

2

ur code should be * { border: 1px dashed #3A5FCD; }

3

Change • to *, that should work.

4

*{
border:1px dashed #3A5FCD;
}

This code is not working, please help.

I am having the same exact problem, the code is right because I can see the results. The message keeps saying that the border needs to be 1px wide. I am not sure if that is the problem or not here is the code that I wrote out: *{border: 1px dashed #3A5FCD;}

Please use the directions below.

Use command (or apple) + and 0 and all will be well. A recurring problem here, too.

Same here…Stuck with the universal selector exercise…I didnt understand this- Use command (or apple) + and 0 and all will be well. A recurring problem here, too.
someone please explain…

I did reset my zoom (I believe @noblesthomas they meant to reset your zoom to 100% since hitting ctrl+0 does that)
But it’s still not working. I’ve done this on both firefox in chrome. Does anyone know what else I can do?

I literally just copied and pasted that code onto mine and it still says, “Oops, try again. Make sure that you use the universal selector * to give a border 1px wide.”

There is nothing I’m doing wrong. This has happened before on another lesson, and I really don’t like it.
