CSS Validation Issue

[iisman]

Getting a parse error with this line of css in the w3c validator:

.mainpagebodyhelp {margin-bottom: 3px; margin-left: 3px; margin-right: 2px; margin-top: 3px; background-color: #f5f5dc;}

Any idea on what could be causing?

Thanks!

Got er resolved. a stray keystroke at the top of the doc was causing.

Thanks for those who looked.

Not really required... but you could represent the same style using:

.mainpagebodyhelp {margin: 3px 2px 3px 3px; background-color: #f5f5dc;}

I recently started using that syntax again once I (finally) understood the order of the four numbers... the analogy I use now is that of a clock face...

Starting at 12 on the clock (representing top), then 3 (representing right), 6 (bottom), 9 (left). As you go clockwise around the clock face, you visit top, right, bottom, left. This is the same order as the numbers.

Anyway, glad you got your code sorted.
