task 1 is no longer passing

Not sure why it keeps telling me task 1 is no longer passing when I try to submit task 2?

index.html 
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head>
    <title>Lists and Links</title>
  </head>
  <body>

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

  </body>
</html>

Hey, The '<li>' tags are not closed (so it no longer passes 1) and the last '<a>' and '<li>' are mushed. Just need to clean up the ends:

<!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>

Also noted the anchor tags weren't closed and the middle anchor tag had the slash in the wrong place. :)
