What seems to be the problem here? It keeps telling me " You should have one self-closing `link` element.". which I do…

```auto
 <link rel="stylesheet" href="styles.css"/>

```

```

please do not delete the code formatting from the template

I’ve edited your post for readability. When you 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.

You can also use the “preformatted text” tool in the editor (`</>`) to add backticks around text.

 ![Pre-formatted-text](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/freecodecamp/original/3X/1/b/1b18854f1059217f29370444396145cc3a0cd8ae.gif)

See [this post](https://forum.freecodecamp.org/t/forum-code-formatting/25574) to find the backtick on your keyboard.  
**Note:** Backticks (`) are not single quotes (').

I have added your code to the starting code of the step, and the step passes. Can you post all your code?

I got the same problem. My code should work, but it doesn’t pass the test.

I have the same issue in:

- chapter 7 of course “Learn CSS Colors by Building a Set of Colored Markers”
- chapter 5 of course “Learn HTML Forms by Building a Registration Form”

```auto
<head>
    <meta charset="utf-8" />
    <title>Cafe Menu</title>
    <link rel='stylesheet' href='styles.css'/>
  </head>

```

How to make it works?

Update:

I found this is probably the Chrome problem. I switched to Brave Browser and everything work here. I suggest to switch to different browser, do your code and then go back to previous browers if you want.
