i think there is a bug

it keeps telling me i was supposed to label the Portfolio link "index.html" and thats exactly how i have it, where might i be going wrong?

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"></a>Portfolio</li>
           <li><a href=:"about.html"></a>About</li>
           <li><a href=:"contact.html"></a>Contact</li>
         </ul>
        </nav>
    </header>

Hey Christian,

You seem to have colons before the opening quote for the "index.html" in your <li> line with the href. Also the "about.html" and "contact.html"

I'm not sure why you have put colons there, but they do need to be deleted.

edited Also, the close <a> tags are misplaced... They need to go after the 'title' and right before the closing <li> tags.

Keep Coding! :) :dizzy:

Sorry, I missed the misplacement of the closing <a> tags. They need to go after the Link Title and right before the closing <li> tag...

<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>
