Why does nothing seem to give me the right answer for this question? I'm quite sure there is a software issue

The code below isn't working for How to Make a Website Challenge Task 2 of 2

<!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 href="index.html">Portfolio</a></li> <li><a href="about.html">About</a></li> <li><a href="contact.html">Contact</a></li> </ul> </nav> </header> <section> <ul> <li> <img src="img/numbers-01.jpg" alt=""> </li> <li> <img src="img/numbers-02.jpg" alt=""> </li> <li> <img src="img/numbers-06.jpg" alt=""> </li> </ul> </section> <footer> <p>Ā© 2013 Nick Pettit.</p> </footer> </body> </html>

Hi Darrin. Welcome to Treehouse.

You code is fine except for one thing: the routing for your image files. The challenge didn't say the images were located in a folder called img, and that is where you are routing to with /img/numbers-01.jpg. Just delete the /img from all three images and you will be good to go.

Keep Coding! :)

I don't see your html, head, or body tags anywhere. The opening html tag should come just after the doctype tag and be closed at the very bottom of the file. Also the meta and title lines near the top need to be within the head section. Below that should be the body section where most of your content should go.

Hey Douglas,

When students post questions directly from the challenges, those tags often disappear and the !DOCTYPE usually shows up just outside and on-top-of the code block. Those tags are there, just not auto-pasted into the question we see.
