I'm typing in the correct answer I think but it's saying I'm not making the test green

I'm in the task challenge and I types }color:green; but it won't let me advance. What is the correct answer? I would like to take the next video but I can't until I pass this challenge.

Make sure to put a space after the colon. { color: green; } (for CSS)

for HTML 

            <font color="green">This is some text!</font>

For this challenge you will want to add the color: green; code to the h1{} selector you created in Task 2. Your final code should look like:

<body>
    <style>
      h1 {
        color: green;
      }      
    </style>
    <h1>Nick Pettit</h1>
</body>
