Tell us what’s happening:
Describe your issue in detail here.

I’m having trouble changing the text color of the “terms and conditions” link. The hint given to me is that I need to use an a element selector. This is my first time making a post so I apologize if it isn’t done correctly.

   **Your code so far**

You have done a great post

in my personal opnion I do not see any error in your syntax but seems you accidently erase some CSS style in line 71. It could trigger syntax error.

try restart step then click reset this lesson. It will bring back the original code and rewrite your code again.

Hope this will help
