There is no "color property" in this programming quiz. Is there something wrong with it?

There is no code under the CSS tab...

index.html 
<!doctype html>
<html>
  <head>
    <link href="styles.css" rel="stylesheet">
  </head>
  <body>

    <h1> Welcome to My Web Page!</h1>

  </body>
</html>
styles.css

I don't think there is anything wrong with it.

Can you not just update the css file yourself?

E.G.

h1{
  color: purple;
}

Hey Jode :)

Yea, it's true that there isn't any CSS code in the styles.css. So the challenge wants you to write the code, which changes the color of the h1 tag.

In the styles.css: h1 { color: purple; }

I hope that was helpful, Patrick
