9,163 PointsI keep getting an error on setting a media query breakpoint and adjusting the H1 font size
I've typed in what I think is correct code, but the "challenge reader" keeps saying that I didn't change the H1 font size. I'm confused, I hope someone can help.

6,531 PointsCould you post your code copy/pasted? Sometimes the challenges are VERY literal and even one small difference can hold you up.
@media screen and ( min-width: 480px ) {
h1 {
font-size: 2.5em;
}
}
That is the code that should work, was the challenge reader EMPTY when you were prompted this? Make sure to put the media queries at the bottom of your CSS, because of the cascading nature of CSS you could be overriding CSS that follows your query.
Hope that helps, thanks.

Full Stack JavaScript Techdegree Graduate 71,349 PointsYou didn't show your code, but you want to do something like this:
@media screen and (min-width:480px) {
h1 {
font-size: 2.5em;
}
}

9,163 PointsThanks for the response Dale. I don't know what's going on as I initially typed in the same code that you provided. I then took your code and copy and pasted and it's still giving me the bummer error.
The prompt is this:
"Create a breakpoint for devices 480 pixels wide or larger. Inside the breakpoint, set the h1 font-size to 2.5em."

9,163 PointsThanks for sending the comment about placing it at the end of the code. That's what allowed it to work. I forgot that he said that in the lecture.
