form [class="form-contact"] and [class="form-contact"] not working

I am using the exact same code like in the video, but nothing happens when I save and refresh the page. I tries applying other style on the page, and they work without any issues. Any ideas?

This is my code:

form [class="form-contact"] {

    padding: 20px 24px;
    background: #f4f7f8;
}

/*  No space between tag & [ ] */
form[class="form-contact"]{

}

/* Why not just this? */
form.form-contact{

}

Well, I don't know :). This is the code Guil used in the video. I am following the instructions, that's all. I will try the spaces, thank you.

Spoiler Alert

remove the space between the tag and the first opening square bracket :)
