What's wrong with my image tag?

I really don't understand why this isn't working. I checked it with the code I have on workspaces (which I can confirm works), but I still get this error when hitting "Check work": "Make sure you include an image tag that displays "img/numbers-01.jpg".

Here's my code:

<section>
      <ul>
          <li>
             <a href="img/numbers-01.jpg">
                <img src="img/numbers-01.jpg" alt"">
             </a>
          </li>

          <li>
             <a href="img/numbers-02.jpg">
                <img src="img/numbers-02.jpg" alt"">
             </a>
          </li>

          <li>
             <a href="img/numbers-06.jpg">
                <img src="img/numbers-06.jpg" alt"">
             </a>
          </li>

       </ul>
</section>

Thanks!

You're missing the opening ul tag and you should make sure you are linking to the correct folder where the image is located. Hope that helps.

Calvin, I fixed syntax highlighting for you. You can refer to this video for how to get your code highlighted properly.

Calvin, remove the links, e.g., <a href="img/numbers-01.jpg"> from each list item, and you should be good to pass the challenge.

Oh my god thank you so much for the help Dustin!! I feel really silly for forgetting that that was code for a link. Also, thanks for the video and fixing the syntax highlighting!!
