Numeric and Textual Data Types

Just learning CSS, not sure what I am doing wrong in this challenge.

"Set the color of the 'strong' text back to its initial color value."

This is what i have in the .CSS

strong {color: initial; }

Any ideas?

Hi! It should be: strong { color: initial; }

I guess you have mistake, because you put ":" just after strong.

Try again. strong { color:initial; } this site is finicky sometimes.

I used 

p a {
color: initial; 
}

and it seemed to be fine.
