Description

Now let's start fresh and talk about CSS inheritance. Every HTML page has a body element.

Instructions

We can prove that the body element exists here by giving it a background-color of black. We can do this by adding the following to our style element:
body {
  background-color: black;
}

Tests

tests:
  - text: Your <code>body</code> element should have the <code>background-color</code> of black.
    testString: assert($("body").css("background-color") === "rgb(0, 0, 0)");
  - text: Your CSS rule should be properly formatted with both opening and closing curly brackets.
    testString: assert(code.match(/<style>\s*body\s*\{\s*background.*\s*:\s*.*;\s*\}\s*<\/style>/i));
  - text: Your CSS rule should end with a semi-colon.
    testString: assert(code.match(/<style>\s*body\s*\{\s*background.*\s*:\s*.*;\s*\}\s*<\/style>/i));
