All links to css etc goes inside the head tags
</head>
<body>
The content of your web page goes inside the body tags

It looks like you're on task 2.

The instructions say, "Create the HTML element that will serve as the document root." You did create an element, but instead of "html", you wrote "head".

When you get to task 3, remember that the new elements go inside the html tags.

Hi Jayson

You have misplaced your code. In your head tags, you have placed a style container containing all your body code. You need to remove all of that code as it should not be there.

<head></head>
<body>Your content goes here (divs etc)</body>

Not like this:

<head><body>Content here</body></head> 
<body></body

Hope that helps!

FYI: That's a direct URL to your workspace, it's temporary and only exists while you are using it.
