Hi kameron- You will need to select by an element's attribute suffix, using this general syntax:

a[href$=".html"] {
  text-decoration: none;
}

See this page for more info:

a[href$=".html"] {
  text-decoration: none; 
}

This is similar to what you did in step one, except that the $= makes it target the end of the attribute instead of the beginning :)
