# --description--
You can group cells of your grid together into an <dfn>area</dfn> and give the area a custom name. Do this by using `grid-template-areas` on the container like this:
```css
grid-template-areas:
"header header header"
"advert content content"
"footer footer footer";
```
The code above merges the top three cells together into an area named `header`, the bottom three cells into a `footer` area, and it makes two areas in the middle row; `advert` and `content`. **Note:** Every word in the code represents a cell and every pair of quotation marks represent a row. In addition to custom labels, you can use a period (`.`) to designate an empty cell in the grid.
# --instructions--
Place the area template so that the cell labeled `advert` becomes an empty cell.
# --hints--
`container` class should have a `grid-template-areas` property similar to the preview but with`.` instead of the `advert` area.
```js
assert(
__helpers
.removeCssComments(code)
.match(
/.container\s*?{[\s\S]*grid-template-areas\s*?:\s*?"\s*?header\s*?header\s*?header\s*?"\s*?"\s*?.\s*?content\s*?content\s*?"\s*?"\s*?footer\s*?footer\s*?footer\s*?"\s*?;[\s\S]*}/gi
)
);
```
