Code Challenge

"Add the head and body elements to the page" is the task. I'm just starting on Web design and i think I'm doing fine.

index.html 
<!DOCTYPE html> 
<html>
  <head> 
    <meta charset="utf-8"
          <body></body>

          </html>

This should fix it:

<!DOCTYPE html> 
<html>
  <head> 
    <meta charset="utf-8">
   </head>
    <body></body>
</html>

Hi Arnav!

Take a look at the line in which you declare your charset! There is an error on it. Other than that it looks like you are doing great, good luck!

Hi Arnav and Luke,

There's one other thing: the opening head element needs something...
