Since she only has one property: value for each rule the semi colon is
actually optional.
The other way to make sure you're getting *black* is to use the keyword
black instead of numbers. Black can be any /one/ of these values:
background: black; (note the semi colons are optional for single
property/value rules)
background: #000; (Short form for "hex" values. # is required!)
background: #000000; ("html" format for hex, # still required)
background: rgb(0,0,0); (counting from 0-255)
background: rgb(0%, 0%, 0%); (counting from 0-100% saturation)
"background" the property name can also be written "background-color."
Either are acceptable if only the background color is being defined.
For more information about each of the background properties see:

For more information on units of color see:

Hope that helps.
