Problem with CSS Visual Rules 9. Background Image

#1

Help! My code isn’t working and it won’t let me advance to the next section.

I have copied and pasted the right URL into the background-image property for the .image selector.

could somebody tell me where I’m going wrong please?

https://www.codecademy.com/courses/learn-css-selectors-visual-rules/lessons/css-visual-rules/exercises/background-image?action=resume_content_item&course_redirect=learn-css

Here is my code:

.image {
background-image:url(“https://s3.amazonaws.com/codecademy-content/courses/freelance-1/unit-2/soccer.jpeg”);
background-size: cover;
background-position: center;
height: 300px;
}

What error message are you getting from this?

#3

Getting the following error message:

Did you make the .image element’s background image the url in the instructions?

#4

Try using this code:

.image {
  background-image: url("https://s3.amazonaws.com/codecademy-content/courses/freelance-1/unit-2/soccer.jpeg");
  background-size: cover;
  background-position: center;
  height: 300px;
}

If that doesn’t work, try refreshing your brower, restarting your browser, logging out of codecademy and back in, or try using another browser for this exercise.

Thanks so much for your help! Got it working in another browser :slight_smile:
