Can you post a copy of your html? We can look at it and let you know what might be wrong. There is a Markdown Cheatsheet under the comment/answer box that shows how to post code.

Hi Ayman,

You may have a blank href, a non-existing file reference in your href attribute, or an invalid web address typed into the href attribute for your <a> link. Check to make sure that the href attribute points to an existing file on your PC (and is spelled correctly), points to a valid web address ex. "http://www.teamtreehouse.com", or contains a # sign so that you will not get an error when you click on it. An empty # sign can be used a placeholder so that your page won't try to load another page when you click on the link, and you can test how any CSS applied to the link looks when you interact with it.

If that answer helped you out, I wouldn't mind getting the Best Answer selected. :) Thanks!

I can't possibly understand why that answer deserves a down vote...

Check the links after your href. The links should be surround in quotes, but instead have a accented a around them. Should look like this:

<header>
    <a href="index.html" id="logo">
  <h1>Ahmad saad  </h1>
   <h2>Ahmad saad | Designer</h2>

    </a>
   <nav>
      <ul>
         <li><a href="index.html">Portfolio</a></li>
         <li><a href="about.html" class="selected">about</a></li>   
         <li><a href="contact.html">contact</a></li>
     </ul>

Have you created your about.html and contact.html pages? And, if yes, are they in the same folder that your index.html file is in?
