Set the color of anchor elements inside the nav element to white using a hexadecimal value

is it not:

nav a{color: #ffffff;}

css/main.css 
a {
  text-decoration: none;
}

#wrapper {
  max-width: 940px;
  margin: 0 auto;
}

#logo {
  text-align: center;
  margin: 0;
}

h1,h2{color: #ffffff;}
p{color: #000000;}
Nav a{color: #ffffff;}

Yes, looks like the only mistake is the upper case N in Nav. Type it as nav. Try sticking to writing your bottom 3 lines of code in the same format as the top. It will help you spot mistakes easier.

nav  a {
   color : #ffffff;
}

nav should not be capitalized. This worked for Task 3:

nav a{color: #ffffff;}
