Null error

Does anyone know why I am getting a null error?

    <ul>
      <li>
        <img src="img/numbers-01.jpg" alt="">
      </li>
      <li>
        <img src="img/numbers-02.jpg" alt="">
      </li>
      <li>
        <img src="img/numbers-06.jpg" alt="">
      </li>

I get it when trying to complete the "Organize With Unordered lists" objective. Its basically telling me to insert images for each list item, and when I try to move onto the next step it says "Bummer! null".

Did it ask you to put the alt tags in and is the path to the images correct?

the task states "Inside the three new list items, add the following images from inside the img folder: "numbers-01.jpg", "numbers-02.jpg", and "numbers-06.jpg". Leave the alt attributes blank, and don’t add any captions or links. Just the images!"

when I type in the code above, it either gives me a null error or it says that the first task is no longer passing. The first task stated "Inside the <section> element, create an unordered list with three blank list items. This will become an image gallery, but don’t fill in the list items just yet."

Thanks!
