Why isn't task two passing now?

On task three, which is adding a link, but task two is now not passing and I can't figure out why

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 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></section>
    <footer>
      <p>&copy; 2013 Nick Pettit.</p>

Hi Lauren, You're really close. You're not passing because your closing a tag bracket is in the wrong place. It should be after the link, not after the name being displayed:

<nav>
        <ul>
          <li><a href="index.html">Portfolio</a></li>  <!-- moved > from after Portfolio to after html" -->
          <li><a href="about.html">About</a></li>
          <li><a href="contact.html">Contact</a></li>
        </ul>

Hope that helps you. Keep Coding! :)
