I'm confused about this question. A style tag is <style> </style> are we supposed to change the color?

I can't get passed this question.

Thanks

Hi Lindsey,

A style tag is <style> </style> are we supposed to change the colour?

Ah ha,

I get it now,

I take it your on the third question out of three, so your code looks something like this:

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

Okay, you have added the style tags, and then you've selected the H1 element.

Now its asking you to turn the content of H1 (Nick Pettit) the color green.

hope this helps, give me a shout if you need more help.
