Font-weight property for CSS

"Select the links inside the nav element. Add font weight 800 and padding top and bottom 15px and left and right 10px." How do I do this challenge which is in How To Make A website?

Hey Samuel,

To select the links inside a nav element, you start with the "nav", then "a" for the links since html links start with..

<a href = "www.linkexample.com ">

Your css page should look like this..

nav a  {


}

Now you can add the styling requested inside the brackets.

Hope that helps!

Hi Samuel Jhan,

I understand you're having some issues with this particular code challenge, but the two answers given by other students should help. I checked them and they are correct.
