152 PointsHi, I cannot get past write an HTML doctype. I have completed the task several times, but it will not move on?
<!DOCTYPE HTML> <html> <head> <meta charset="utf-8"> <title>Sri Anant | Utsaaha</title> </head> <body> <header> <h1>Sri Anant</h1> <h2>Utsaaha</h2> </header> <section> <p>Gallery will go here</p> </section> <footer> <p>Ā© 2015 Sri Anant</p> </footer> </body> </html>

The task is asking you to type just the doctype (without all the other code). Ironically, it's the bit that didn't get formatted correctly in your code snippet.
A great guide can be found here.
Hope this helps!

11,353 PointsDillon - I'm thinking that what you're missing is a 'body' tag in your document. So something like this :
<!doctyle html>
<html>
<head>
</head>
<body>
</body>
<footer>
</footer>
</html>
Of course to pass the quiz, you might have to adjust this format to fit the question, but in general this is how you would lay out a page. Hope this helps a bit ! kj
