Hi,

The problem said "don’t add any captions" so you probably should not put any words between <li> and </li>. Also between each list items, you put lines. That is why error message saying task 1 is not passing. Please try the code below.

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

Make sure that your images are in the same directory where the index.html is situated. If you images are in an other directory make sure that you point it to that directory

Think that your images are in a folder called img, then rewrite the code like this:

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

Hi Doug,

There are a few issues in your code.

  • You open a 'nav' tag which I think is copied from the above list - this tag is not required (its also not closed)
  • Your images are not inside the list items, you close the list item before adding the image.

Correct code looks like this:

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