How can I set the anchor element of a nav element to white? I tried coping the code in the video's example.

Code:

nav { background: #599a68; }

nav a, nav a:visited{ color: #fff; }

css/main.css 
a {
  text-decoration: none;
}

#wrapper {
  max-width: 940px;
  margin: 0 auto;
}

#logo {
  text-align: center;
  margin: 0;
}
h1, h2 {
  color: #fff;
}
p {
  color: #000;
)

nav {
  background: #599a68;
}

nav a, nav a:visited{
  color: #ffffff;
}

Your p selector isn't closed properly.
