I'm stuck. Help please!

This particular challenge is asking me to link the list item "Portfolio" to the "index.html" web page. I believe I have it correct, however it's not letting me proceed. This is how i have the code entered below:

<li> <a href="index.html">Portfolio</a></li>

Please let me know if there's an error. Much appreciated! =)

This is the code I currently have***

(<li> <a href="index.html">Portfolio</a></li>)

Ignore the ( ) in the beginning and end...it wouldn't display my code here for some reason.

Hi Carlos,

Can you try reposting your code? It doesn't appear to be showing up. Your code for the challenge should look something like this:

<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>

Hi Carlos!

The comment box is not displaying your code as you're pasting the HTML directly.

For future reference: Wrap your code with 3 backticks (```) on the line before and after. If you specify the language after the first set of backticks, that'll help with syntax highlighting.

You can click on the 'Markdown Cheatsheet' link below every comment box for further reference.
