In a code challenge I am being asked to set the paragraph element to be black with a hex value. I have entered what I believe to be the correct section of code, but I keep getting the Bummer response.
Shouldn't it be the following?
p { color: #000; }
I've tried this in a practical situation and it appears to be working fine for me.
a {
text-decoration: none;
}
#wrapper {
max-width: 940px;
margin: 0 auto;
}
#logo {
text-align: center;
margin: 0;
}
h1, h2 {
color: #fff;
p {
color: #000;
}

Treehouse TeacherHi there! That part is fine. The problem is the rule above it is missing a closed curly brace }
. Try it again after putting the curly brace in its spot

Courses Plus Student 1,969 PointsAh, I found the error. The previous deceleration wasn't closed properly with a }. Thanks for checking out my question though.
