Re: Help!! I messed up!
Can you revert the code to what it was before you made changes?
A trick I sometimes use is to have the CSS/HTML boxes open in two tabs. I make changes in the one tab, and leave the old code as is in the other tab. If I goof up I can just save the tab with the old code and revert everything back to the way it was.
I also use the back button and then use CTRL + Z to undo the changes I made and setting everything back to the way it was before and save it.
It's also handy to have a test board for making changes so that mishaps don't mess up the main board.

Re: Help!! I messed up!
Here's the culprit:
height: 3O0px;
You had three-oh-zero instead of three-zero-zero. The letter "O" is wider than the number "0", which is how I spotted the error. Although a human can see what you meant, technology requires more precision.
I fixed it, but added two pixels, because the height of your image is actually 302px.

Re: Help!! I messed up!
Here's a site that can help you catch CSS errors:
https://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/#validate_by_input
Just paste the CSS you changed into there, and it will let you know if the CSS is valid. In this case, you would want to paste this in:
#header {
background: url(http://gifyu.com/images/996AF565-D914-46D8-AF35-4906E1AD9FB7.gif)
no-repeat center;
height: 3O0px;
margin-top: 8px;
margin-bottom: 10px;
}
It will return this error:
Value Error : height Unknown dimension 3O0px
This is because 3O0 (three-oh-zero) isn't a number.
Edit to add: Jox's suggestions are good, too.

Re: Help!! I messed up!
First I want to say thank you thank you very much!! Part of the problem is I’m trying to do it on my phone and I can’t keep two tabs open on my phone but what I’m going to do in the future is copy and paste what’s in there now and save it so I can at least have that to go back to. Now I want to read what you did I’ll be right back....

You are most welcome.
Does sitting hurt your back? Have you tried using your computer standing up?

Re: Help!! I messed up!
Oh I wish. Unfortunately both aggravate my lower back due to arthritis and previously compression fractures-ugh. I do a few minutes either standing or sitting now.... But hard to concentrate when my back starts barking at me😳
Im hoping to get a laptop or iPad soon .Meanwhile I have to be extra careful while using my Phone .🙂
