Html to CSS cant pass

#1

I just finished HTML and started CSS and I just can t pass lesson. I did it correctly but still, won’t let me pass. Did anyone have the same problem?

@CaptainMakaveli Welcome to the forum.

Which lesson and what code did you try?

#3

2nd where it asked me to style into red.

#4

You need to supply the challenge url and you need to post the code you have tried.

To enter a code block into a forum post, please precede it with a separate line of three backticks and follow it with a separate line of three backticks to make it easier to read.

See this post to find the backtick on your keyboard. The “preformatted text” tool in the editor (</>) will also add backticks around text.

Note: Backticks are not single quotes.

<h2 style="color: red";>CatPhotoApp</h2>

On right side I can see it changed to red. But when I click run the tests it said Your h2 element should be red.

#6

please format correctly, or it is impossible to see your code
this time I am going to do it myself, but if you don’t learn to do it it will be difficult asking for help…

#7

Well I thought that I have to put those back flips or whatever is name of those.

#8

next time also please use the “Ask for Help” button, or at least link the challenge
because if it is this one: https://www.freecodecamp.org/learn/responsive-web-design/basic-css/use-css-selectors-to-style-elements

this is what you need to do:

Delete your h2 element’s style attribute, and instead create a CSS style block. Add the necessary CSS to turn all h2 elements blue.

but it doesn’t correspond to what you are saying

#9

you didn’t put any backticks around your line of code there…

#10

Sorry it s this one https://www.freecodecamp.org/learn/responsive-web-design/basic-css/change-the-color-of-text

#11

look at your semicolon, look at the example code

#12

An example from W3Schools:

<h1 style="color:blue;">This is a Blue Heading</h1>

As said above, the correct syntax is to put the semicolon inside the quotation marks, as that semicolon is a required part of the CSS syntax.

Change your h2 element’s style so that its text color is red.

It wont let me pass over and over again for last 2 days.

#15

I did all of that and it s just h2 and red color same code i typed and I can see Heading changed to red on right side. But when I press run tests it said that h 2 element should be red.

#16

your issue is the semicolon, look where it is in your code and where it is in the exampe code

#17

It s not. It s same code. And guy in video said the same thing I bassicly copied ad it won t let me pass but core is correct.

#18

your semicolon is outside quotes

#19

Can you please repost your latest code attempt? Make sure to use backticks ``` on the line before and after the code you paste, so that it shows up correctly on the forum.
