The instructions say to "set the top-left and bottom-left border-radius to 5px", but when you supply only one value it will be used to set all four corners.

You will need to supply additional values (and some will be 0) to make sure you only set the ones required.

I think you're missing that the challenge ask you to set the radius for only two corners, top-left and bottom-left, not all four.

Thank you very much! I totally forgot the question.
