I've added curly brackets to the coding but I am still getting the challenge incorrect. What am I missing?

On challenge task 2 of 3. It ask me to write CSS. And then it tells me not to forget my curly brackets. I added the brackets several times only to get the same outcome. Am I missing a step?

At the end of Task 1, your code should look similar to:

<body>
    <style>

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

Task 2 is to: Now, write CSS that will select the h1. Don’t forget your curly braces!

To select the <h1> tag in CSS we would write it like "h1 {}", correct? That statement needs to go between the <style> tags, so your final code would look like:

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

Does that make any sense?
