<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head>
    <meta charset="utf-8">
    <title HTML challenge task 6>
  </head>
  <body>
    <header>
      <h1>Some site</h1>
      <h2>About anything</h2>
    </header>

Hello Marko, the problem seems to stem from a mistake with your title element. You made title as a self-closing tag, but it is not.

You wrote:

<title HTML challenge task 6>

It should be:

<title>HTML challenge task 6</title>

The < title > tag in your < head > is not self-closing so you have a syntax error.

<title>Here is my title</title>
