Closing tag problem

Tell us what’s happening:
I am on the lesson about the A element and I did everything right but it says my A element needs a closing tag. I watched a video and read the hint. I tried everything and I have no clue whats wrong. other than “your a element should have a closing tag”

Your code so far

Hello and welcome to the FCC community~!

You have a stray < here, in your img element, which is throwing off the tests. :slight_smile:

You made a mistake in this line of code. Please check it again.

You didn’t inserted a closing tag for < img>

Hello~!

<img> elements are self-closing. :slight_smile:

But in his code line he only have 1 closing tag which is for < alt> :thinking:

The code contains an <img> element - as I mentioned above, that < before the alt attribute is a stray tag and should not be there. :slight_smile:
