don't forget to style tag???

ok it's a stupid question and as I'm very new to this and the fact that I do not understand most of the terms. This task is from challenge task 1 of 3. Feel free to treat me like a child. Thanks

Imran, all they are asking for here is for you to add a style tag just above the h1, so it should look something like this.

<body>
  <style></style>
  <h1>Nick Pettit</h1>
</body>

Internal style sheets are mostly in the <head> tag, in this case should be above the body tag 

            <style></style>
<body>
  <h1>Nick Pettit</h1>
</body>
            ```

Piotr, you are absolutely correct as far as general syntax and structure is concerned, however the question in the challenge is specific to the location of where they'd like to see it added for the exercise.

"We’re starting out with an <h1> element and a <body> element. Add a <style> element just above the <h1>."

Tim, thanks for clarification, I just thought we should teach the correct syntax from scratch :)

You guys are all great and thanks, but I followed all instructions in the video,

<style>

H1 { Color:blue; } <h1>my name</h1>

I sound like a bafoon yes I know, but truth is I'm jumping into this amazing sector with no knowledge., most of the technical terms I'm not familiar with. And again I really do appreciate the help.

Hi Tim, when I did as you wrote up, I was wrong and I got a comment: We can't see the h1 tag any more! Did you enclose it IN the style tag? Make sure to close the style tag with "</style>" BEFORE the h1 tag!

I did corect several on different way then yours, but now it doesn`t work!

What is problem?

Thank you!
