HTML Challenge Question Wrong

Hi guys, why is the rectangle in the HTML challenge a square? Height 12px and width 12px makes a square not a rectangle, so many people are probably entering the height as a number other than 12 due to this error.

Here's 1 version of the question with 12 and width as answers at the end: You need to display a rectangular image with its side equal to 12px. If the image is not accessible, display the text "a smiling dolphin" the image is in a folder named "images" Answer: <img src="images/dolphin.jpg Alt = a smiling dolphin Height = 12px, width =12 px/>

Sorry I can't figure out how to cut and paste the whole question but the relevant part looks like this: Height: ___px _______: 12px and so far the only correct answers are 12 and width so the only acceptable answers are for that of a square not other rectangles like 3px, width:

I did report it several times, but the question has reappeared on many challenges so I think the writers agree with Ace that squares are types of rectangles. I just think that if the answer is 12h12w only, then the text of the question should say Square. I put in 3h12w and it was considered wrong.
