Im stuck I don’t understand something. This is my error: All html elements after the closing style tag should be nested in .container-fluid. Here is my code

<div class="container-fluid" .red-text { color: red; }

h2 {
font-family: Lobster, Monospace;
}

p {
font-size: 16px;
font-family: Monospace;
}

.thick-green-border {
border-color: green;
border-width: 10px;
border-style: solid;
border-radius: 50%;
}

.smaller-image {
width: 100px;
}

Two things:

  • It would really help if you let us know which step this is for. Providing a link to the step would be even better.

  • You need to paste your code in here using the following method so we can see it properly.

To display your code in here you need to wrap it in triple back ticks. On a line by itself type three back ticks. Then on the first line below the three back ticks paste in your code. Then below your code on a new line type three more back ticks. The back tick on my keyboard is in the upper left just above the Tab key and below the Esc key. You may also be able to use Ctrl+e to automatically give you the triple back ticks while you are typing in the this editor and the cursor is on a line by itself. Alternatively, with the cursor on a line by itself, you can use the </> button above the editor to add the triple back ticks.

I also just started learning html, so my apologies

“To get started, we should nest all of our HTML ( → except the link tag and the style element ← ) in a div element with the class container-fluid.”

Also, don’t forget that a tag always starts with < and ends with >.

6

The <div tag needs to be closed with </div at the end of the code to make it valid and balanced.
The <link tag inside the <div tag is misplaced and should not be there. You must move it outside the <div tag.
The <link tag is incorrect to include a stylesheet. You should use <linK within the <head of your HTML document, not within the body content.
