Hi Again
I am stuck on a question in the test where I am asked to add a header and a footer tag, when I select check work it explains that I haven't entered a footer tag. Where am I going wrong? Here is my code:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title><title/>
<meta charset="utf-8">
</head>
<body>
<header>
</header>
<section></section>
<footer></footer>
</body>
</html>
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title><title/>
<meta charset="utf-8">
</head>
<body>
<header>
</header>
<section></section>
<footer></footer>
</body>
</html>

<title><title/>
Which should be:
<title></title>
It's causing the HTML to not render correctly, since you're only seeing the code at this point, it makes it really hard to visually see anything breaking. I'll admit that it had be stumped for a few minutes until I noticed the closing tags were a different color.

1,968 PointsThanks Luke, Sorry if that wasted your time. I also just couldn't see it. I'm really impressed with the speed on this forum, hopefully I'll give back one day!.

16,593 PointsJeremy Dawson you didn't waste my time at all, helping people is something I love doing! I'd say that most of the bugs I fix on a daily basis in my own code are simple typos like this, and sometimes it can be really difficult to spot them.
