Tell us what’s happening:

Not sure why this is throwing the following errors. I’ve put it through a validator numerous times and that says its fine.
Errors:
2: You should have an html element with lang set to en (I do??)
3: You should have a head element within the html element.
8: You should have a body element within the html element.

Your code so far

Welcome to the forum @ForeverIcky

Where are the closing html and body tags?

Happy coding

3

Since the closing html and body tags were not called out by the W3C Markup Validation Service, I created an issue for this.

where did you create the issue?

UPDATE: This issue was closed as not planned because the HTML spec says the html and body closing tags are optional.
