It looks like you're trying to put some html tags in your css instead of a proper css selector.
It wants you to select the links within the nav element. You would use a descendant selector for this.
nav a

In your code above you are writing html into a css file which won't work.
Try taking out the html tags <> and write it like the others above it.
Post your code again if you still can't get it

266 PointsNot quite sure what you are referring to here, a bit more detail would certainly be helpful. However, from what I can see, you have entered some HTML tags into the bottom of your CSS file. When adding properties to the tag <nav>, you just use the word 'nav' in css, providing it exists in the HTML. Also you have done the same with your links (<a>) but this in fact duplicated at the top of the page anyway so it is not needed.
If this doesn't answer your question please provide more details and I will be happy to assist.

Courses Plus Student 94,610 PointsHi Ben,
Usually a forum question is linked to the piece of content it relates to. You can check over in the right column and there's a "related content" section which links to the code challenge that this question is referring to.

266 PointsI understand that, Jason, but I do find it is better conduct for posting when the poster includes a brief description of their problem within the post. The related content should really be secondary to the post itself.
