Why is it saying I'm forgetting my style tag?

<style> h1{ color: red; } </style><body> <h1>Nick Pettit</h1> </body>

index.html 
<style>
  h1 { color: red;
  }
</style>
    <h1>Nick Pettit</h1>

Hey Alvarez,

The problem is that the color should be green not red. Your code is correct, otherwise.

I would have to test this in the challenge, but try this:

<style>h1{color:red;}</style>
<h1>Nick Pettit</h1>

Spacing sometimes matters even when the code is technically correct.
