Hey erika cecilia 👋

The tests for these coding challenges are pretty strict when it comes to the text content you're providing. There are two things you'll want to adjust to the paragraph text.

  • Remove the spaces surrounding the string
  • Add an ! as the challenge asks for the text to be "My first paragraph!"

This should result in the following code which should pass the challenge as expected:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html> 
    <head></head> 
    <body> 
        <p>My first paragraph!</p>
    </body>
</html>

Hope this will help to get you going again 😁
