Hello! I'm on step 2 of the challenge, and I'm not sure what is incorrect about the code I've written.

The help message says "Make sure you include an image tag that displays "img/numbers-01.jpg". Below is what my code looks like:

<section> <ul> <li> <a href="img/numbers-01.jpg"> <img src="img/numbers-01.jpg" alt=""> </a> </li> <li> <a href="img/numbers-02.jpg"> <img src="img/numbers-02.jpg" alt=""> </a> </li> <li> <a href="img/numbers-06.jpg"> <img src="img/numbers-06.jpg" alt=""> </a> </li> </ul> </section>

I appreciate any help you can offer!

Hi Angela,

Your code is correct but for the challenge it's only asking for the image tag without any alt tags, etc:

Inside the three new list items, add the following images from inside the img folder: "numbers-01.jpg", "numbers-02.jpg", and "numbers-06.jpg". Leave the alt attributes blank, and don’t add any captions or links. Just the images!

It should therefore look like this to pass:

    <section>
      <ul>
        <li><img src="img/numbers-01.jpg"></li>
        <li><img src="img/numbers-02.jpg"></li>
        <li><img src="img/numbers-06.jpg"></li>
      </ul>
    </section>

Hope that helps.

I think that it is because it is looking for the anchor element wrapping the < li >. 

<a href="img/numbers-01.jpg">
            <li><img src="img/numbers-01.jpg" alt=""></li>
          </a>

I seem to remember that it didn't care that I put the alt attribute in.

Best of luck

Jo
