Here is my CSS
a {
text-decoration:none;
}
/* text-decoration mostly deals with underlines :none turns off the browser default to underline hyperlinks */
/* one of the best ways to test the file link is to use body {background-color:whatever;} */
#wrapper {
max-width: 949px;
margin: 0 auto;
padding: 9 5%;
}
#logo {
text-align:center;
margin: 0;
}
/* # is an ID selector to id="" in html */
/* padding provides space around the interiour of an element. T/B & L/R */
/* text-align is simuliar to word processing l,R & C */
a {
Color: #90caf9;
}
header {
background: #90caf9;
border-color: #64b5f6;
}
h1, h2 {
color: #e3f2fd;

Keep Coding! :)
Jonthue Michel
1,462 PointsHover works, but the white text not so. I've copied what I could as far as were he inserted the color white but my text still look bluish. http://port-80-hztubmix12.treehouse-app.com/index.html
Jason Anders
Treehouse Moderator 145,860 PointsThere is a space between the : and the word "visited" You have nav a: visited. Delete the space.
Jason Anders
Treehouse Moderator 145,860 PointsAnd the color you've chosen (#e3f2fd) does have a slight blue tint to it. Not much, but noticeable.
Hopefully once that space is deleted, everything works. :)
Jonthue Michel
1,462 PointsThanks it solved it. I'll definitely keep the spacing in mind. I replaced it as #fff now thanks.
Jason Anders
Treehouse Moderator 145,860 PointsYou're welcome! Happy it worked. :)
Kathleen Sapp
12,776 PointsJonathue- Do you possibly mean 'hover'? Your code is
nav a.selected, nav a:hoover { color: #1976d2; }
There may be other issues but I noticed that right away.
Jonthue Michel
1,462 PointsThanks. Hover was ideally to be a custom color but the others like h1, h2 & nav, nav revisited suppose to be white. But I'm still not getting the white text on the non selected text or so. http://port-80-hztubmix12.treehouse-app.com/index.html

1,462 PointsI used another color code or whatever instead of #fff because I simply was trying to see if it will make a difference.
