help on Challenge task 2 of 3 of web design

Hi James.

Remember that these tasks are linked and generally to do in a certain order.

Let us go through the steps of how to make a list.

We have our nav and ul tags. They are the navigstion and unordered list. We must now actually make the list. So let us make the list containing those 3 words.

Hopefully that helps you out without actually giving you the answer.

If you need more help try rewatching the video where the list is coded.

Let us know how it goes.

Hello James,

task 2 of three says: "Inside the navigation element, create three list items with the words, “Portfolio”, “About”, and “Contact”. Don’t add links yet."

Previously, on task 1 you wrote some code that looks like this: <nav><ul></ul></nav>. So, what you're asked to do now is to create three list items: <li>some text</li> and put it inside the <nav></nav>.

But list items go always inside their parent list element which in this case is the <ul></ul>. So, you must place the list items inside the unordered list element, which is inside the nav element.

thank you for the advice on tracking down my error.

Well what is the point in being told what the answer is?

You use Treehouse to learn, not to be told the answers ;-)

Good Luck on your track.
