Why does it ask for a character set attribute when I already have "charset" written in the code?

-I wrote charset in the code -It says I didn't

Hi Micah,

I'm using a restricted domain at work so I won't be able to check the code challenge but I will try to help you anyway.

How did you add your code? because it should look like this:

<meta charset="utf-8">

Just under the 'head' tags:

<head>
    <meta charset="utf-8">
</head>

or try without the "utf-8".

Hope this will help!
