I am getting the error message that I haven't included a list item with the word "Portfolio" in it but it is included.

I can't see what is wrong with the code, it looks right to me. Thanks!

index.html
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head>
    <meta charset="utf-8">
    <title>Nick Pettit</title>
  </head>
  <body>
    <header>
      <a href="index.html">
        <h1>Nick Pettit</h1>
        <h2>Designer</h2>
      </a>
      <nav>
        <ul>
          <li><a href="index.html"Portfolio</a></li>
          <li><a href="about.html"About</a></li>
          <li><a href="contact.html"Contact</a></li>
        </ul>
      </nav>
    </header>

you are missing the right angle bracket in all three of your list item anchor tags

 <li><a href="index.html"Portfolio</a></li>
          <li><a href="about.html"About</a></li>
          <li><a href="contact.html"Contact</a></li>

should be

 <li><a href="index.html">Portfolio</a></li>
          <li><a href="about.html">About</a></li>
          <li><a href="contact.html">Contact</a></li>

Ah, thank you! Really appreciate it.

<ul> <li><a href="index.html">Portfolio</a></li> <li><a href="about.html">About</a></li> <li><a href="contact.html">Contact</a></li> </ul> close the anchor text tag
