Creating An HTML Element

I need help with the src attribute. What am I doing wrong?

<!doctype> <html> <head> <title>My trip to Spain</title> </head> <body>

<img src="images/s[aom.jpg" alt="A Picture of me in Spain Here is a picture of me in Spain last summer Here is a picture of me in Spain last summer! "> Here is a picture of me in Spain last summer! <a>Go back to the top of the page.</a>

</body> </html>

Hi Michael,

I suspect your issue is the file name you're using in the src attribute: images/s[aom.jpg.

You should confirm the file name here and confirm there are no typos and try again!

<img alt="A picture of me in Spain" src="images/spain.jpg">

Yes! check again to be sure the IMAGE NAME YOU ARE USING IS "s[aom.jpg"

<img alt="A picture of me in Spain" src="images/spain.jpg">

Also, it should be <!doctype html> before the <html> tag.
