Courses Plus Student 2,849 PointsThe problem is with how it is worded. Let me explain!
In task two the words are " Inside the navigation element, create three list items with the words, “Portfolio”, “About”, and “Contact”. Don’t add links yet."
Those are created inside of the previous element. Like my example below!
This one will not work!
<nav> <ul></ul> <li>Portfolio</li> <li>About</li> <li>Contact</li>
This one will work!
<nav> <ul> <li>Portfolio</li> <li>About</li> <li>Contact</li> </ul>

While I'm still unclear as to what the problem is that you're experiencing or what your code is, perhaps this clarification of the code challenge can help:
It looks like perhaps you may be inserting the words that the challenge is asking for in the second task with quotes around them and mixed capitalization - remove the quotation marks and make sure each word is Capitalized and you should pass the task.
Hope this helps.

Example: if the challenge is asking for you to change the background color of an element, it might accept the shorthand "background: #color;" format, or it might want you to extend that to be more specific, like "background-color: #color;".

If you want to post your code then I can take a look.
What was posted by Harlan passes through task 2 although the closing nav tag was left off.
Make sure that you have it inside the header but after the link that was already there.

What is the problem? Can you pose your question and post your code?
