286 PointsI'm getting an error to make sure an image tag displays "img/numbers-01.jpg" but when I preview the images show up
I'm not sure what I'm missing. The preview looks correct, at least I think it does.

495 PointsIt was exactly what An Ploy-an mentioned , remove the <a> </a> anchor tags. They must not be written in the "correct answers" portion, ha.

iOS Development with Swift Techdegree Student 11,664 PointsHi! Have you figured it out yet? If not, remove the <a> </a>. Even though you can see the pictures when you preview, the anchors (<a> </a>) isn't doing anything in this code challenge.

My guess is that this error is telling you that in case an image doesn't show up, you need an image tag that will. Maybe it's telling you that you need to add something in the alt="", and not just leave it blank.

286 PointsNot sure what the deal was. I literally just cut and pasted the "section" into the section of the code challenge and it took it.
