**Tell us what’s happening:**  
It keeps saying “use the hex code for the color green instead of the word green” but I have already done this and it doesn’t move on. What am I doing wrong?

**Your code so far**

```auto
<style>
  .red-text {
    color: FF0000;
  }
  .green-text {
    color: 00FF00;
  }
  .dodger-blue-text {
    color: #2998E4;
  }
  .orange-text {
    color: #FFA500;
  }
</style>

<h1 class="red-text">I am red!</h1>

<h1 class="green-text">I am green!</h1>

<h1 class="dodger-blue-text">I am dodger blue!</h1>

<h1 class="orange-text">I am orange!</h1>

```
