my code is correct but it is saying I have forgotten the head element.

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html></html>
<head></head>
<body></body>

This is my code however during the code challenge a notice appears saying I have forgotten the head element

The html tag should encompass your other tags. 

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
   <head></head>
   <body></body>
</html>
