Hi Gene,

Sorry about that, I thought you were talking about html not your css.
Your code is fine, it should pass.

Are you typing in the code or pasting it? (try doing the opposite)
Try logging out then back in.
Try restarting your browser.
Try using a different browser.

They are all my usual suggestions for this problem.

Hope this helps.

Hi Gene,

Does your code look something like this?

Where did you add the <style></style> tags?

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>Title of the document</title>
</head>

<body>
The content of the document......
</body>

</html>

<style>

h1 { color: blue; }

</style> <h1>Gene Irish</h1>

Hi Gene,

Is you CSS in a different stylesheet or is it embedded in the html page ?

Peace,

Nam
