Header won't change color

In my code, the nav is blue and not grey. Therefore, the dark green is not going away. Helpppppp.

High there,

Please paste in your CSS so we can see what's happening :)

To use the formatting put it inside 3 back ticks with the word css like this (I've used apostrophe's so you can see what I mean): '''css body { margin: 0; } ''' So it looks like this: 

body {
  margin: 0;
}

In the mean time, check for specificity - is the original selector more specific for example:

hader nav ul li {

vs

li {
