Difficulty with Code Challenge

The challenge is coming back with "the portfolio item should link to "index.html" I believe that my code is correct, I'm having difficulty locating the issue.

```<a href="index.html"> <nav> <ul> <li><a href="index.html">Portfolio</a></li> <li><a href="about.html">About</a></li> <li><a href="contact.html">Contact</a></li> </ul> </nav>

the problem is task 1 states: Create a navigation element with an unordered list element after the link inside the header. task 1 asked you to place your code AFTER the link inside the header (so after the closing </a> tag. You placed your code inside the link inside the header (between the <a></a> tags). move your code down below the link and it should work:

<header>
      <a href="index.html">
        <h1>Nick Pettit</h1>
        <h2>Designer</h2>
      </a>
      <nav>
          <ul>
            <li><a href="index.html">Portfolio</a></li>
            <li><a href="about.html">About</a></li>
            <li><a href="contact.html">Contact</a></li>
          </ul>
        </nav>
    </header>
