When I remove my closing </nav> tag on question one, it doesn't pass. When I hit question 2, it says question 1 now has an error

9,099 PointsI thought it was asking me to put my nav tag after the anchor tag. When I did that without any closing tags on the nav or the ul I was able to get through just fine. I don't know why

2,521 PointsDid you mean to make your anchor tag (IE: hyperlink) so large? It encompasses the entire list as well as the two Header tags that follow. While this is not necessarily wrong, it is unusual. It makes that whole section a hyperlink.
The question I have for you is: Where are you trying to put your closing NAV tag?

9,099 PointsMy anchor tag was set up like that by default.
I was trying to out my closing nav tag under my closing ul tag.

Create a navigation element with an unordered list element after the link inside the header. Don’t add any list items or links just yet

Courses Plus Student 1,749 PointsHi Iram :) Can you be a little more specific? The folks in the forum don't have access to see which questions you're talking about. Sometimes it's best to copy and paste the questions themselves, along with your coding efforts. Don't be discouraged, just give us all the details you can so we can help you work through it. :)
