First, you need colon (":") as separator between properties names and values. Second, you need a dash ("-") as joiner between words composing a property name, and third the correct spell of background colour property name is "background-color" (with the dash and without the "u")... And finally, your code will be much readable and pleasant if you format it a minimal (indentation, common conventions: css is case insensitive, but mostly everybody write property names all lowercase ;) #main { height: 650px; wodth: 500px; background-color: red; border: 2px solid black; } #box1 { height: 100px; width: 200px; background-color: blue; } #box2 { height: 200px; width: 300px; background-color: yellow; } /* debug styles */ #main { outline: 5px dashed darkred; } #box1 { outline: 5px dashed deepskyblue; } #box2 { outline: 5px dashed gold; } (I've added some "debug styles" to improve your comprehension of what you're doing: outline, unlike border, doesnt change elements)
