It says don't forget my style tag. It is correct on my workspace and works there. What is wrong?

Task 1 of three. I thought I was past this and it won't let me go on.

index.html 
<style>

    h1 {
       color: blue;
    }

</style>
  <body>
    <h1>Nick Pettit</h1>
</body>

The instructions state to place a style element directly above the h1 element. Your style element is directly above the body element. I've noticed treehouse is very specific in where it requires things to be placed.

You'll find if you move the style element inside the body element and above the h1 element you'll be fine.
