I am not able to get pass the challenge 2 of 2. A communication error continues to pop up on the screen.

Can someone assist me in this concern?

index.html 
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head>
    <title>Lists and Links</title>
  </head>
  <body>
  <ul>
    <li><a href="cakes.html"Cakes</a></li>
   <li><a href="pies.html"pies</a></li>
    <li><a href="candy.html"candy</a></li>
    </ul> 
  </body>
</html>

You've almost got it, but you forgot to close the opening anchor tags.

<ul>
  <li><a href="cakes.html">Cakes</a></li>
  <li><a href="pies.html">Pies</a></li>
  <li><a href="candy.html">Candy</a></li>
</ul>

The highlighted parts is the text editor trying to help show you where an error may be happening. For example, it was expecting a >, but got a </.
