Question on Setting color using CSS

This challenge asks me: Set the color of the first and second level headings to white using hexidecimal.

My answer:

h1, h2 { color: fff; }

Why is this wrong?

3 Answers

Hi Benjamin, it looks like you're missing # before fff.

h1, h2 { color: #fff; }

yeah never forget the # when setting the color.

h1, h2 {color: #fff;}
