I do not believe this question is grading properly. i've looked up the correct answer from other forums. still wrong

Here is the question: Next, create a pseudo-class selector that targets all visited links. Add a color property and set it to Steelblue.

I believe the code is correct but it keeps grading me as incorrect. Also, the hint changes back forth between saying to use link or visited

style.css
/* Complete the challenge by writing CSS below */
a:visited {
    color: steelblue;
}
index.html
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head>
    <title>Lake Tahoe</title>
    <link rel="stylesheet" href="page.css">
    <link rel="stylesheet" href="style.css">
  </head>
  <body> 
    <header>
      <span>Journey through the Sierra Nevada Mountains</span>
      <h1>Lake Tahoe, California</h1>
    </header>
    <p>
      Lake Tahoe is one of the most breathtaking attractions located in California. It's home to a number of ski resorts, summer outdoor recreation, and tourist attractions. Snow and skiing are a significant part of the area's reputation.

    <a href="#">Find out more</a>
    <div>
      <h2>Check out all the Wildlife</h2>
      <p>
        As spawning season approaches, the fish acquire a humpback and protuberant jaw. After spawning, they die and their carcasses provide a feast for gatherings of mink, bears, and Bald eagles.

    <h3>From Tents to Resorts</h3>
    <p>
    Lake Tahoe is full of wonderful places to stay. You have the ability to sleep in the outdoors in a tent, or relax like a king at a five star resort. Here are our top three resorts:
    </p>
    <ul>
      <li><a href="#">Lake Tahoe Resort Hotel</a></li>
      <li><a href="#">South Lake Tahoe Resorts</a></li>
      <li><a href="#">Tahoe Ski Resort Lodging</a></li>
    </ul>

Hey Blake,

I don't see the CSS that was asked for in the first task? This needs to be there.

Tasks in challenges are cumulative. Code is to be added to the code the last task asked for. You don't delete or alter any code unless the instructions explicitly ask you to.

If you restart the challenge (or just add back in the code you deleted), you should be good to go.

Keep Coding! :) :dizzy:
