Help Stuck -Link to External Pages with Anchor Elements

HTML-CSS
1

*Tell us what’s happening:
The program keeps telling me to Create an a element that links to http://freecatphotoapp.com and has “cat photos” as its anchor text. But have I not done that below by using the anchor <a followed by the href attribute?

Your code so far


<h2>CatPhotoApp</h2>
<main>
  
  
  
  <img src="https://bit.ly/fcc-relaxing-cat" alt="A cute orange cat lying on its back.">
  
  <a href="https://freecatphotoapp.com">cat photos</a> 
  
  <p>Kitty ipsum dolor sit amet, shed everywhere shed everywhere stretching attack your ankles chase the red dot, hairball run catnip eat the grass sniff.</p>
  <p>Purr jump eat the grass rip the couch scratched sunbathe, shed everywhere rip the couch sleep in the sink fluffy fur catnip scratched.</p>
</main>

http://freecatphotoapp.com is not what you added as the href value.

If I understand correctly to add an outside link to a website I need to insert an anchor which is done by <a . The anchor needs needs a distination which is link by the element href. If so, then I do not understand why my code is not working.

You have https instead of http.
