Hi @rebeccamariehollon

Your first anchor element should have the text of About inside your first li element.

Does the text on the browser look like a link?
Try clicking it to see what happens.

Happy coding

4

do you know how to see what is the text of an element?

5

it does on the posts, and contact but not on about. but the codes look identical but clicking the links didn’t do anything else either, I moved the text to the other side between the closing anchor tag and closing li tag but the link went away after that.

6

isn’t that the text that displays on the screen? between the opening and closing tag

7

And what is there between the opening and closing tags of your anchor elements?
