I'm stuck Set the color of anchor elements inside the nav element to white using a hexadecimal value.

I'm stuck on this quiz question: Set the color of anchor elements inside the nav element to white using a hexadecimal value.

css/main.css 
a {
  text-decoration: none;
}

#wrapper {
  max-width: 940px;
  margin: 0 auto;
}

#logo {
  text-align: center;
  margin: 0;
}

h1,h2 {
    color:#fff;
}

p  {
  color: #000000;

nav a, {

}

Your p tags aren't closed and you have a comma after the a. This code below will work fine.

a {
  text-decoration: none;
}

#wrapper {
  max-width: 940px;
  margin: 0 auto;
}

#logo {
  text-align: center;
  margin: 0;
}

h1,h2 {
    color:#fff;
}

p  {
  color: #000000;
}

nav a {
  color: #ffffff;
}

Hey;

why did you add the comme after the a ? remove it and it should be fine !

nav a {
color: #fff;
}

and also close your p selector just above it !
