10,606 Points#col-c:target {background: #eff1f2;} - Not changing. How do I fix?
Hi everyone.
So I followed this tutorial on workspaces precisely as Guil wrote it out:
:root {
background: #e3effb;
}
:target {
background: #384047;
color: white;
}
#col-c:target {
background: #eff1f2;
color: initial;
box-shadow: 0 0 6px rgba(0,0,0, .2);
}
However for some reason #col-target background colour does not change to #eff1f2.
When I look into developer tools on Chrome it displays: invalid property value. I was just wondering whats going on? So I can learn to fix a similar issues in future?

Full Stack JavaScript Techdegree Student 15,373 PointsIs there possibly a syntax error? In your "background: #eff1f2;" code, I right-clicked the space between the colon and the # symbol, and it gave me <span class="err"></span>

Not 100% sure but I think it should be #col-c a:target { } as you can't actually target the ID. Also it will only change colour when targeted, so try hitting tab a few times.
