CSS Link padding

Hi, can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong to change the padding for the links in this code challenge? "Select the links inside the nav element and set their font weight to 800. Then, set padding on the top and bottom to 15 pixels. Set the padding on the left and right to 10 pixels." I can't quite figure out where I'm going wrong. Thanks!

css/main.css 
a {
  text-decoration: none;
}

#wrapper {
  max-width: 940px;
  margin: 0 auto;
}

#logo {
  text-align: center;
  margin: 0;
}

h1, h2 {
  color: #fff;
}

nav a {
  font-weight: 800;
  padding: 15 px 10 px;
}

nav a:hover {
  color: #32673f;
}

nav ul {
  margin: 0 10px;
  list-style: none;
  padding: 0;
}

nav li {
  display: inline-block;
}

h1 {
  font-family: ‘Changa One’, sans-serif;
  font-size: 1.75em;
  font-weight: normal;
}

img {
  max-width: 100%;
}

#gallery {
  margin: 0;
  padding: 0;
  list-style: none;
}

#gallery li {
  float: left;
  width: 45%;
  margin: 2.5%;
  background-color: #f5f5f5;
  color: #bdc3c7;
}

Drop the spaces between the #'s and the px.

nav a { font-weight: 800; padding: 15px 10px; }

You are almost right!

Remove the space between the number and the unit and everything should be ok!

Hope this helps!
