Bummer! Make sure you're selecting the h1 tag in your style.

Hi, I'm working on step 2 of "Code challenge, Write a CSS selector and Property. I don't know why I'm getting this message.

code:

<body> <style> {

}

</style> <h1>Nick Pettit</h1> </body>

Oh I'm sorry I copied and pasted the code thinking it would show up properly.

Ok, It turns out that I solved that problem but now I have a new one. "Bummer! Make sure you're coloring the h1 tag green."

<p>
<body>
  <style> { 
      <h1> color: green
      }
  </style> 
  <h1>Nick Pettit</h1>
</body>
<p>

Hey Timothy! When writing CSS, the format should be as follows:

SELECTOR { PROPERTY: VALUE; }

So for your example, to make all first-level headers green, we would format the CSS coding as:

h1 { color: green; }
