431 PointsWhy in the video for the selector do I need no curly brackets to select h1 but in the challenge I do?
To select the h1 element within style on the video it showed h1 by itself without curly brackets but the color had them. Then in the challenge I'm supposed to use curly brackets to select h1, Do I need curly brackets to select h1 or any other element or not?
<body>
<style>
{h1}
</style>
<h1>Nick Pettit</h1>
</body>

h1 {
color: #fff
}
So the H1 itself is not wrapped in curly braces. The H1 in this case is your selector, color is your property, and #fff (white) is the value of that property.
