so for question one it needs to be like this
<style>
</style>
<h1>Nick Pettit</h1>
Copy this in.

iOS Development with Swift Techdegree Student 11,664 PointsI think this is the correct answer for task one of this task, but don't forget the <body> tag. And don't forget slash ( / ) in closing tags.
"Task 1/3 : We're starting out with an <h1> element and a <body> element. Add a <style> element just above the <h1> . " For this task, we're adding <style> tag above <h1> ( just below the <body> tag), and don't forget to close it with </style>. Don't delete the <body> tag.
<p>
<body>
<style>
</style>
<h1>Nick Pettit</h1>
</body>
</p>
When you finish, don't forget to press "Check Work" or "Recheck Work".
"Task 2/3 : Now, write CSS that will select the h1. Don’t forget your curly braces!" To select h1, you type h1 below your <style> tag, follow by curly braces ( {} )
<p>
<body>
<style>
h1 {
}
</style>
<h1>Nick Pettit</h1>
</body>
</p>
"Task 3/3: Nice! Finally, set the color of the h1 element to green." Inside curly braces, type color: green; Don't forget that "color" is followed by colon ( : ) and semicolon ( ; ) after "green". Notice that if you press "preview" you'll see that the h1 element (Nick Pettit) change to green color.
<p>
<body>
<style>
h1 {
color: green;
}
</style>
<h1>Nick Pettit</h1>
</body>
</p>
Back then, I got stuck on this one for long too. So, hope this help you!

69 PointsUnfortunately i'm not sure that answer is helping me... the workspace before this challenge had me add the Style to the Name which was easy then it asked me to add <body> and style above the <h1> i feel like i'm doing that and i'm getting no where.. I've just been getting the error for 2 days about not adding a style tag...i'm sure its something easy it always is...
