what’s wrong with this code?

Your syntax is absolutely fine. Can you send full CSS code to analyze what’s wrong with it?

The code editor has a CSS rule to style all a tags black. Add a rule so that when the user hovers over the a tag, the color is blue.
THIS IS THE QUESTION

It seems like you have the wrong color?

a:hover { color: blue; }

Is this the problem?

Hi

a:hover { color: #000; } this will turn color black on hover - #000 is black.
So your code probably is changing text from black to black, not blue.

Because your code is not formatted for markdown we cannot see most of it. Your <a> tag appears as a link to a cat photo. You can wrap code in backticks or select the code button </> in toolbar above to format as computer code.

Here is the code editor for that challenge formatted as code.

<style>
  a {
    color: #000;
  }

</style>
<a href="http://freecatphotoapp.com/" target="_blank">CatPhotoApp</a>

Including the link to the challenge helps immensely when asking for assistance.

Can you copy and paste your entire solution so that everyone can see it? Be sure to format it as computer code or we won’t be able to see most of it

Alphaleo, Yes, thank you so much.

I’ve actually got the answer,

It asked me to put the both black and blue, but I missed that I gotta put the hover different place,
The answer is this:
a {
color: #000;
a:hover {
color: blue;
}
}
