I cannot pass this challenge

seems to be where it is supposed to be. It also is self closing ( I know).

Your code so far


<style>
  h4 {
    text-align: center;
    height: 25px;
  }
  p {
    text-align: justify;
  }
  .links {
    text-align: left;
    color: black;
  }
  .fullCard {
    width: 245px;
    border: 1px solid #ccc;
    border-radius: 5px;
    margin: 10px 5px;
    padding: 4px;
  }
  .cardContent {
    padding: 10px;
  }
  .cardText {
    margin-bottom: 30px;
  }
</style>
<div class="fullCard">
  <div class="cardContent">
    <div class="cardText">
      <h4><s>Google</s>Alphabet</h4>
      <hr>
      <p><em>Google was founded by Larry Page and Sergey Brin while they were <u>Ph.D. students</u> at <strong>Stanford University</strong>.</em></p>

yes it is a bug. you can skip or look at similar posts in the forum for how to get past the challenge.

also encountering the same bug.

Tell us what’s happening:
The 2nd test is insisting that the

element is not between the h4 and p elements, when, in fact, it is.

Failed test: “The hr tag should come between the title and the paragraph.”

Replace the paragraph>tag with em>

Yeah…the solution is to put <.em.> in front of <.p.> (<.em.><.p.>…<./p.><./em.>).
