Why am I getting a Bummer!

So here is the code I typed and it seems to be correct, but I'm still getting an error "The Portfolio list item should link to "index.html". Please help, Thank You!

<nav> <ul> <li><a herf="index.html">Portfolio</a></li> <li><a herf="about.html">About</a></li> <li><a herf="contact.html">Contact</a></li> </ul> </nav>

index.html 
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head>
    <meta charset="utf-8">
    <title>Nick Pettit</title>
  </head>
  <body>
    <header>
      <a href="index.html">
        <h1>Nick Pettit</h1>
        <h2>Designer</h2>
      </a>
      <nav>
        <ul>
          <li><a herf="index.html">Portfolio</a></li>
          <li><a herf="about.html">About</a></li>
          <li><a herf="contact.html">Contact</a></li>

Hey Joel,

you almost got it right but you have a typo in your href attribute. You wrote "herf" instead of "href". If you fix that it should look like this and work:

    <ul>
      <li><a href="index.html">Portfolio</a></li>
      <li><a href="about.html">About</a></li>
      <li><a href="contact.html">Contact</a></li>
    </ul>

I hope that helps, good luck! :)
