Your closing style tag is malformed.

Hello David,

You seem to have forgotten to close your style tag properly.

You have </style

It should be </style>

Hope this helps!

Hi David,

Just looks like you are missing the closing angle bracket on the ending style tag.... Also the code is not wrapped in a "head" tag that I can see?

<html>

  <head>

    <style>

      <!--  Styling goes here  -->

    </style>

  </head>

</html>

Hope this helps!
