@infinityl00p Great! Let me check it out

@danjumaharjan it looks like @LukeGeneva is correct, the test cases are expecting the 2 <p> tags that you removed to still be there. Other than that your code is right.

@freeCodeCamp/moderators this is interesting. Anyone want to weigh in on this? I think either we should modify the tests so that they pass even if other non-required elements are deleted, or have an an additional test case that says no other code should be modified.

The initial code has two <p> elements pre-filled. The test cases are expecting these to still be present, but they appear to be missing from your solution code.

<p class="red-text">Kitty ipsum dolor sit amet, shed everywhere shed everywhere stretching attack your ankles chase the red dot, hairball run catnip eat the grass sniff.</p>
<p class="red-text">Purr jump eat the grass rip the couch scratched sunbathe, shed everywhere rip the couch sleep in the sink fluffy fur catnip scratched.</p>
