code challenge

I'm on stage 3, question one, of the Website Design Track. Question is: Create a new element with an unordered list element after the link in the header. Can someone show me exactly how it should look? Thanks.

If I post the code, you won't learn anything :) So I'm just going to give you a hint:

<header>
  <a href="index.html">
    <h1>Nick Pettit</h1>
    <h2>Designer</h2>
  </a>
  <!-- Insert your code here -->

It sounds like they are looking for you to add a ul element like this...

<header>
    <a href="#">Click me!</a>
    <!-- Insert code here like Ryan said... lol -->
</header>

Hope that helps!

Hey Stephen!

The task itself is vague compared to what you have to enter to complete it. You kind of have to "feel things out" by getting the question wrong a few times to get the right answer. Every error will give you more clues on how to solve that first task. Rather than just flat out giving you the answer I can tell you that you'll have to nest that unordered list (with a couple list items in it) inside another element after the closing tag of the anchor.

At the end of the code challenge make sure you leave feedback on the "challenge completed" pop-up to help improve things for other students.

Thanks for posting! I hope I helped you out!
