[ApolloTurms]

Uhh, it’s the noob again D: it says:

" Inside the same <style> tag that contains your red-text class, create an entry for p elements and set the font-size to 16 pixels ( 16px )"

I am completely lost though I’m sure the answer is staring me in the face. Can I get some halp plz?

Hi @ApolloTurms,

You need to focus on the style part, so:

<style>
  .red-text {
    color: red;
  }
</style>

The challenge wants you to select the paragraph and put the size to 16px. You can follow the example of the course:

<style>
  h1 {
    font-size: 30px;
  }
</style>

That’s exactly what I did but do I nest in-between the first style element or do I create a h1 element nested in the style element or directly after it before the h2 element, or do I nest it anywhere between the main element?

Hello @ApolloTurms,

Your styling always goes between these <style>[your code here]</style> tags. The tags are opened like so: <style>, and closed </style>.

The elements themselves, for example the h2 element, go outside of these tags, and inside their own tags. Hope this helps?

Inside the same <style> tag that contains your red-text class, create an entry for p elements and set the font-size to 16 pixels ( 16px )

The linguistics of this question are somewhat confusing.

FIRST : Inside the same <style> tag that contains your red-text class,
Create an entry for p elements

Here we have the <style> section:

<style>
  .red-text {
    color: red;
  }
</style>

SECOND: create an entry for p elements.

<style>
.red-text {
  color: red;
{

p {
}
</style>

THIRD : Set the p element font-size to 16 pixels (16px).

<style>
.red-text {
  color: red;
{

p { [INSERT YOUR FONT SIZING]
}
</style>
