The following additional instructions may be helpful:
Step 13 A: Select the .AccordionFocused .AccordionPanelTab style in the CSS Styles panel. This rule defines the appearance of the panel tabs when the panel is focused, (which is the state created when a user activates the panel by clicking on it.) The default style of this focused state is a shade of blue which doesn't fit in with the page design. So in this case, you will want it to match the background color you set in step 11.
Click the color value for the background-color property and type #8CD031, then press enter/return to commit the change
Step 13 B: Select the .AccordionFocused .AccordionPanelOpen .AccordionPanelTab style. This rule defines the appearance of any panel tab that is open (for example when the user clicks on a specific tab to switch sections). Click on the color value for the background-color property and type #CF9 to set it to the same light green used in step 12.
