My closing section is still red.

Working in Safari 7.0.6, the: /footer/div/body/html lines are all still red even though it looks like my code matches the lesson perfectly. I have scanned through it a dozen times looking for open statements. What am I doing wrong?

Hint: also, my "© 2014 Nick Petit" is still green and not grey.

Adam,

You'll need to post your code, see the Markdown Cheatsheet. Otherwise it's just guessing.

This was hard to spot, but here's the error: In your footer's Facebook A tag the ending tag is <a/> when it should be </a>. So that link is not being closed properly.
