Challenge Task 4 of 4?

I actually don't at all understand what it's asking for here. I copied what we did in the exercise, but apparently that's not it:)

css/main.css 
a {
  text-decoration: none;
}

#wrapper {
  max-width: 940px;
  margin: 0 auto;
}

#logo {
  text-align: center;
  margin: 0;
}
h1, h2 {
  color: #fff;
}

p {
  color: #000;
}

nav a, nav a:visited {
  color: #fff;
}

nav a.selected, nav a: hover {
  color: #32673f;
}

Hi Russell, They want you only to change the colour of nav links when user hover over them. Just delete last three lines of your code and paste this instead:

nav a:hover {
  color: #32673f;
}
  • if that doesn't work delete also the rule for nav a:visited - as it wasn't part of the challenge.

Funny. That's what I typed first. When it didn't work, I added the other stuff. Not sure what happened, but it's ok now. Wish I knew why it didn't recognize it the first time. I didn't change anything. I just added the other lines afterwards. Who know. Thank you! Oh, I spoke too soon. I fixed it, then it went back to a previous task, and when it came back to this one, it was wrong again.
