301 PointsSetting color of anchor elements
Instructions say: Set the color of anchor elements inside the nav element to white using a hexideci. value.
Error/bummer message reads: Make sure that you've styled links (a) elements inside the nav to be white with a hexideci. value.
The following CSS code looks correct:
a { text-decoration: none; }
wrapper {
max-width: 940px; margin: 0 auto; }
header { background: #6ab47b; border-color: #599a68; }
h1, h2 { color: #fff; }
nav { color: #fff; }
p, {color: #000000; }
a: link {color: #ffffff }
logo {
text-align: center; margin: 0; }
I have tried it without ' link ' as well and nothing seems correct??
a {
text-decoration: none;
}
#wrapper {
max-width: 940px;
margin: 0 auto;
}
header {
background: #6ab47b;
border-color: #599a68;
}
h1, h2 {
color: #fff;
}
nav {
color: #fff;
}
p, {color: #000000;
}
a:link {color: #ffffff
}
#logo {
text-align: center;
margin: 0;
}

8,378 PointsIn order to set the color of the a inside the nav, you have to target it by using nav a then follow by the color. Like this
nav a {
color:#fff;
}
