Hey everyone,
I'm having a bit of trouble with this code and I'm not sure why. For some reason, my class links aren't working. The word "class" isn't red and it shows up on my preview page as if were a paragraph or something.
I first noticed when I typed the contact class and decided to test it out since it wasn't red and sure enough, it didn't work. I tried doing the same with the phone number and the class still didn't register
Here's a snippet of my code below:
<section> <h3>General Information</h3> <p>I am currently looking for work. Please, contact me if you're interested in design work</p>
<p>Please only use phone contact for urgent inquries. </p>
</section>
<section>
<h3>Contact details</h3>
<ul> class="contact-info">
<li>class=phone"</li>
</ul>
</section>

Correct example:
<p class="some-class"></p>
Incorrect example
<p>class="some-class"</p>
