Selectors stage 2 , of Deep Dive CSS

Two reasons your code is not working: 1) you have a space between a and [title="More!"] that shouldn't be there, and 2) you don't have a semicolor after your css rule.

But you should also change your code slightly, because they want all anchor elements with a title attribute to be dark red, not just the one with the title of "More!". So instead your code should look like this:

a[title] {
    color: darkred;
}

the challenge says to select a elements with a title attribute. You are selecting a elements with a title attribute equal to "More!". All you need to do is select a elements with ANY title (so in otherwords you dont need the ="More!")

Tried many versions but failed I will try again but I doubt it will workThis is my line of code, please help me fix.

a [title] {color:darkred}

Yep the message is the same it says please check attribute selector and make sure the color is set to darkred.

a [title] {color:darkred}
