Turn the words `cat photos` located inside `p` element into a link using the same value for the `href` attribute as the link below the `p` element. The `p` element should show the same text in the browser, but the words `cat photos` should now be a link. Make sure to remove the `a` element with the text `cat photos` on the line below the `p` element.

I have entered:

Click here to view more [cat photo](http://freecatphotoapp.com).

I moved the href into the p element and deleted the a element which was below for only 1 a element.

BUT, I keep getting the error : The link’s text should be `cat photos` . You have either omitted the text or have a typo.

It’s like I misspelled cat photo, but I have tried it every which way with spaces and triple checked the spelling, but it still says it’s wrong. What else can I try?

If,

Then your is missing the `s` at the end.

You show have in your challenge, something like this:

`<a href="...">...</a>.</p>`

It is hard to say because we cant see your code but, probably you dont.

When you type a reply, see to tool bar at the top of the box. It has an `</>` symbol to format your code as such.

When you enter a code block into a forum post, please precede it with a separate line of three backticks and follow it with a separate line of three backticks to make it easier to read.

You can also use the “preformatted text” tool in the editor (`</>`) to add backticks around text.

 ![Pre-formatted-text](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/freecodecamp/original/3X/1/b/1b18854f1059217f29370444396145cc3a0cd8ae.gif)

See [this post](https://forum.freecodecamp.org/t/forum-code-formatting/25574) to find the backtick on your keyboard.  
**Note:** Backticks (`) are not single quotes (’).
