Hello there.

Do you have a question?

If so, please edit your post to include it in the Tell us what’s happening section.

Learning to describe problems is hard, but it is an important part of learning how to code.

Also, the more information you give us, the more likely we are to be able to help.

A refresher on what an element is might help you understand better.

“An HTML element is defined by a start tag, some content, and an end tag.”

Elements opening/closing tags should be nested within each other. Think of on of those nested dolls. They can stand on their own, or fit around another doll. BUT you can’t mismatch them (i.e. put an outer-doll top on an inner-doll bottom).

To illustrate this point I’ll use numbers for elements. Here are some working examples:
<1> content </1>
<1><2> content </2></1>
<1> content <2> content</2> <3>content</3> </1>
Here are some not working examples:
<1><2>content</1></2>
<1><2><3></2>

This all might be overly convoluted, but I’m hoping to explain without giving the answer away.
