Remove the text decoration from the link.

<head>
    <title>Text Properties</title>
    <link rel="stylesheet" href="page.css">
    <link rel="stylesheet" href="style.css" />

<body>
    <h1>The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog</h1>
    <p>
        Pellentesque sem augue, auctor quis dictum et, interdum nec felis. Suspendisse faucibus viverra enim, vitae facilisis mi euismod id. Morbi ac erat mauris, a semper ligula. Etiam semper.

</html> 
style.css
/* Complete the challenge by writing CSS below */
h1 {
text-transform: capitalize;
}
p {
text-indent: 50px;
  line-height: 150%;
}

a:hover {
text-decoration: none;
}

Try removing the :hover pseudo class from a:hover and make it just,

a { text-decoration:none; }

Because the work space might just be looking for an anchor without any pseudo classes following it. Hope this works, Reggie :)

Reggie is correct. Currently you're only removing the text decoration when the link is hovered over.
