Code challenges retain the code you enter. Does the "Challenge task" change from 2 to 3? You may try a hard refresh of the page. (cmd + shift + R). This reloads the cache.

Once you entered your code and clicked the button to check your work, It congratulated you on that task completed. The code that you entered (as shown above) is task 1 of 3. You then have to click the button above the work area that reads "Next Task". This will take you to the next task (Task 2) which will ask you to add some CSS code: "Now, write CSS that will select the h1. Don’t forget your curly braces!"

The code that you enter into your work area will be retained for each task: You will notice at the top of your page that the following message appears in light gray: Important: The code you write in each task should be added to the code written in the previous task.

This code challenge will have you add code to the work area for three tasks. When you click the check work button on the third task, it will take you to a quiz.

Make sure and read the text above the work area. It will show you the progression. Challenge task 1 of 3, 2 of 3, 3 of 3.....
