My instructions are to create the tag <nav> directly after the link in the header, I'm confused where exactly it goes?

<header> <a href="index.html"> ##Do I put <nav> here? 

   ##Or here?
index.html 
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head>
    <meta charset="utf-8">
    <title>Nick Pettit</title>
  </head>
  <body>
    <header>
      <a href="index.html">
        <nav></nav>



        <h1>Nick Pettit</h1>
        <h2>Designer</h2>

      </a>
    </header>
    <section></section>
    <footer>
      <p>&copy; 2013 Nick Pettit.</p>
    </footer>
  </body>
</html>

Hi Josh

The tag is already in the above index.html file 

<nav></nav>

after

<a href="index.html">

Does the question ask you create the tag or modify it?

Hey John,

I found out that I was placing the nav tag too early in the structure. The proper place for it was beneath the /a tag. I had to re-read the instructions again, but it made sense after figuring out that the "link" is all of the text between a and /a.

Thanks for your help, though and nice to meet you!
