10,572 Pointsin the example i gave my unordered list element wasn't closed but i tried it again by closing it but i keep getting the same response which is; Don't forget to add "Portfolio" to the list.

29,567 PointsCheck my comment. That is how the syntax is supposed to look like.
Jeremy Hill
29,567 PointsYour list items are supposed to look like this:
<li><a href="portfolio.html">Portfolio</a></li>
I added the link to href; the .html is important for an anchor. Also you need to add the text that will be anchored after the opening anchor bracket.

Jeremy Hill
29,567 PointsYou're welcome, I'm glad you got it.

29,567 PointsYou might also throw in some closing tags for each list item.
