What gives with the checker?

The code written was correct the first time but the checker continued to reject it a couple of dozen times. Buggy...

Can you post your code that you used. Probably made a silly mistake somewhere. We all do it.

Make sure you close all your tags and check for misspelled tags. I once put title like this<tilte></tilte>lol.

Hey Ricardo and Orlando,

Thanks for the replies. This was not a coding error. It was a simple '''<!DOCTYPE html>''' tag that was entered correctly, checked very closely when it was rejected, re-entered, and re-entered over a dozen times. It continued to be rejected until I left the challenge window and went back to it.

There was a glitch in the challenge window.
