"Task 2 is no longer passing"

Why do I keep getting 'task 2 is no longer passing' when I am on task 3 of the activity?

index.html
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head>
    <meta charset="utf-8">
    <title>Nick Pettit</title>
  </head>
  <body>
    <header>

        <a href="index.html">

        <h1>Nick Pettit</h1>
        <h2>Designer</h2>
      </a>
       <nav>
         <ul>

          <li>Portfolio</li>
          <li>About</li>
          <li>Contact</li>
         </ul>
      </nav>

    </header>
    <section></section>
    <footer>
      <p>&copy; 2013 Nick Pettit.</p>
    </footer>
  </body>
</html>

I get a different message.

When I paste your code into task 3, I get: Bummer! The Portfolio list item should link to "index.html".

That message makes sense, as it is the first of 3 changes you need to make for task 3, but it does not appear that you have done anything yet for task 3.

Try again, but do the work for task 3 before you submit it for checking.

This is because you have made an error that breaks the code that was required for the previous task.

Actually, the code shown above passes task 2. The work for task 3 hasn't been done yet.
