Shouldn't dual box-shadow be written like this? box-shadow: hor1 ver1 blur1 spr1 color1, hor2 ver2 blur2 spr2 color2;

Trying to pass a code challenge inside CSS Basics, but my answer simply gets rejected. The task is to set up two different box shadows; I enter this and fail:

box-shadow: 0px 0px 5px #aaa, 2px 2px 8px #bbb inset;

... am I doing something wrong?

I put the inset keyword first and it worked fine. Everything else should be in the order they give you. Hope that helps!
