Bummer! The Portfolio list item should link to "index.html".

I am having an issue with this code challenge... I feel like I have written the code correctly but I am still receiving an error.

What am I missing?

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

  </body>
</html>

Hey Richard,

If you take a look, you're currently wrapping everything within the first anchor tag (Meant for the h1 and h2). You also are forgetting to close your nav and unordered list elements.

I've commented in the areas that required attention.

<a href="index.html">
    <h1>Nick Pettit</h1>
    <h2>Designer</h2>
</a> <!-- Closing tag -->
<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> <!-- Closing tag -->
</nav>  <!-- Closing tag -->

Thank you. That was the correct answer
