200 Points<Style> section not clear
I keep getting the "Bummer" window, but not given the opportunity to review the video to recap. This task moving from the basic line <h1> and including <style> details is not clear to me. I'm getting the test to change colour, what more should there be that I'm not seeing?

200 Points<style> h1{ color:blue; } </style> <body> <h1>Mr John Wayne</h1> </body>
??? looks fine on the browser, but the robot teacher doesn't like it and will not say OK. I just get the Bummer BS over and over.

20,810 PointsHmm, can you wrap your code in Markdown? I think that there might be an issue with what you are writing but I have to make sure...

8,711 PointsI just checked the challenge and it asks you to change the color to GREEN. Your code is fine. The color is wrong.

20,810 PointsWow, you're right. I should have rechecked the code challenge before responding. ^_^;;

200 PointsThanks for your help, but I've retraced all my steps, I didn't see any prompt to change the colour to 'green' where was that metioned?. Having said that I've now done the exercise in green, PREVIEW shows the text in GREEN it looks right and yet I get another BUMMER comment "Bummer! Don't forget your style tag." if it's previewing right, what's missing and what does the style tag mean?
WTF? Bummer! Don't forget your style tag. (confused even more now)
<style> h1{ color: green; } </style> <h1>Mr John Wayne</h1>

200 PointsJust started the whole chapter again, did everything it says, still can't see where it says to change text to green but did it again anyway. Preview is perfect but still getting the BUMMER! "Don't forget your style tag", yet the style tag is there? I also did the 8x Q&A and completed that without a problem, but this is not advancing at the moment. Any suggestions please.

200 PointsI'm doing everything it says, but it's just not advancing, more over the style colour is not changing when I ask for a refresh preview, even though it's shown in the selected colour in the Edit window. This is day one and already getting frustrated with the lack of information provided, as to why things not working when the code is laid down by the book.
