I created in the html the "h1" and instead of creating an "h2" I used a "h3", so at the time I was changing the color to white in the css sheet it won't change the color, i don't know if it's because I used the h3! please help!
html header code:
<header> <a href="index.html" id="logo"> <h1>Andres Leal</h1> <h3>iOS Developer</h3> </a> <nav> <ul> <li><a href="index.html">Portfolio</a></li> <li><a href="about.html">About</a></li> <li><a href="contact.html">Contact</a></li> </ul> </nav> </header>
CSS code:
h1, h3 { color: #fff; }

If it is a challenge that you are trying to complete then try using the elements that it is asking you to use in your CSS selector and everything should then work perfectly!

9,563 PointsSorry, but can you give me an example how?

13,564 PointsAre you being asked to complete a code task? If so, could you please paste the question into this thread?

9,563 PointsNo, it's just the video I'm following:

13,564 PointsOkay I understand now!
The code you will need to turn the h1 text into white is as shown below.
h1 {
color: #fff;
}

9,563 PointsWell it doesn't work but I used it into the html <style> element and that way it works, thanks! :D
Luke Glazebrook
13,564 PointsNo problem I am glad you managed to resolve this issue, good job!

30,164 PointsHey Andres,
The Challenge or Objective works fine, I think it wasnt working due to the h2 & h3 mix-up. When doing the challenges our biggest mistakes are not reading carefully (questions) not proofchecking (answers). It should always be easy to follow along, if we don't understand the challenge it is usually because we "overthought the answer" or "jumped ahead".
