354 PointsShould link to "index.html"......links to "index.html. Am I missing something? It keeps doing this to me.
It also told me my code was wrong when I included the closing tag for <nav>. Why would that be wrong? Why would I wait to put the closing tag?
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<title>Nick Pettit</title>
</head>
<body>
<header>
<a href="index.html">
<nav>
<ul>
<li><a href= "index.html">Portfolio</a></li>
<li><a href= "about.html">About</a></li>
<li><a href= "contact.html">Contact</a></li>

16,510 PointsHi Nigel,
Task 1 starts by asking you to: "Create a navigation element with an unordered list element after the link inside the header".
It is asking you to start your unordered list after the link. So I believe that it wants you to start your list after the closing 'a' tag. So you are heading towards something like this:
<header>
<a href="index.html">
<h1>Nick Pettit</h1>
<h2>Designer</h2>
</a>
<nav>
<ul>
<li><a href="index.html">Portfolio</a></li>
<li><a href="about.html">About</a></li>
<li><a href="contact.html">Contact</a></li>
</ul>
</nav>
</header>
