:: Developer Documentation Request Request Type: Correction Gecko Version: unspecified Technical Contact: :: Details In the middle of the Fundamental css comprehension assessment, there is an instruction that says: "Set the <article>'s height to 120px, expressed in ems." 120px converted to em are 7.5em. However, if we look to the finalized code that is provided, we have 12em. It gave me a hard time to find what I was doing wrong, until I discover that the article height was not 7.5em, but 12em. If the instructor wants the article box size to be 12em, he should gives us 192px, and not 120px.
I tried to delete this bug but I couldn't. In the previous articles the instructor said that we should calculate the em on a 16px - 1em basis. But in this assessment he uses a 10px basis that he gave in the beginning of the css file, and that was the reason why it became a little confusing... But anyway, problem solved. But maybe if there were a message in the beginning of the assessment drawing attention to this would be better.

I think this is a good point — I've added a note at the bottom of this section to hopefully clear things up: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Learn/CSS/Introduction_to_CSS/Fundamental_CSS_comprehension#Project_brief Does this make things better?

Now it's nice! It will prevent others from burning brain mass unnecessarily. ;P
