5,308 PointsStyle Tag Missing
This is the style code I wrote. The challenge tells me I'm missing a style tag. What's wrong with this code?
<style>
h1 {
color: blue;
}
</style> <body> <h1>Nick Pettit</h1> </body>

Courses Plus Student 7,819 PointsYou have to write it this way:
<style>
h1 {
color: blue;
}
</style>```
Hope it works with you

11,940 PointsAs Dustin Scott says, the challenge is to apply style via the <style> </style> tags.
<body>
<style>h1 {color: blue}</style>
<h1>Nick Pettit</h1>
</body>

391 PointsDustin Scott and Bryan H are correct. What you have posted above is a CSS rule, not a style tag. The rule needs to be embedded within the style tags.

5,308 PointsWhen I click on the preview it shows that I've done it correctly. The text turns blue like it's supposed to, but when I check my work it says I'm missing a style tag. The style tag is definitely there. If it wasn't then I would assume that the preview would be incorrect. I've tried the suggestions I received, but it doesn't seem to make a difference. I don't know how to get the challenge to recognize that there is a style tag.
