1,228 PointsIt keeps telling me to put the header tags inside the body tags, but I am already. What am I doing wrong?
I'm typing <body> <header> </header> </body> What am I doing wrong?
<!DOCTYPE HTML>
<html>
<head>
<title> Welcome. </title>
<meta charset="8">
</head>
<body><header></header></body>
</html>

The question you appear to be stuck on is asking you to "Add a header element, section element, and footer element."
You haven't added your section or footer elements yet.
The code below will pass:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<title>World's Greatest Website</title>
</head>
<body>
<header>
</header>
<section>
</section>
<footer>
</footer>
</body>
</html>
Good luck with the challenge!

Treehouse TeacherI see that you have this code:
<meta charset="8">
Try writing this:
<meta charset="UTF-8">
I have the sneaking suspicion it's not even making it down to your header and body tags.

15,000 PointsGood catch Jennifer, I missed that one. I'm surprised that it passed her to the next question since you're asked to set the character set earlier in the challenge.
I just ran through the challenge again and it passes with a charset of "8", which would kind of make sense, since the character set attribute isn't explicit. It would definitely be better to ask the student to use "UTF-8" since it's the character set they'll be working with almost exclusively.
