2,677 PointsI'm having trouble applying my chosen font onto h1 tag in the coding challenge Task 2. Its saying its wrong..
I've added the Google font link (below)into my html code under the "normalise.css" and added the following code for h1 into my CSS to apply the font however, the computer is telling me that it is incorrect.
<link href="https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Roboto" rel="stylesheet">
h1 { color: #fff; font-family: 'Roboto', sans-serif; }
I'm really unsure what I am missing...

2,677 PointsThanks Valerie, I tried using a different font type and link and it worked, but come to think of it, I don't think I had the color in my code second time around, so maybe that is why it worked.
