I edited the slytes file in order to change the color of h1 adding the css code "hr{color: purple;}. It does not work.

In order to pass this test I proceeded like this:

  1. I edited <h1><font color= purple> Welcome </font></h1>. It does not work.
  2. I edited the styles.css file writing the code: h1 {color: purple;}. It does not work again.

Can you please help me how to pass this test? Thanks.

index.html 
<!doctype html>
<html>
  <head>
    <link href="styles.css" rel="stylesheet">
  </head>
  <body>

    <p><h1> Welcome to My Web Page! </h1></p>

  </body>
</html>
styles.css 
hr {
   color: purple;
}

Hey again, you are targeting the wrong element, you should be targeting the h1 element, not hr :)
