Hi @glisa6532,

The opening quotes is missing in your href:

<a href=https://www.freecatphotoapp.com">Cat photos</a>

The link has to be enclosed in " " , the opening quotes is missing.

I did see that finally. and put the quotes in and its still says I need anchor text though I typed it just like the video and it says " cat photos" for the anchor text I did it without the quotes and with , In front and in back . It wont accept it. This is driving me nuts.

The failing test says

You need an a element that links to https://www.freecatphotoapp.com

Does your URL exactly match the requested URL with correct quotation marks around it? When I have correct quotation marks around the exact URL that you are using, then your code passes.

Thank you so much for replying
I refreshed the page and put the code in and it worked,
to refresh ( THE Fn 5 on Asus will help it work, but save code.)
it wont let me post the link as it shows it. make sure there is a > after .com" and closing Cat photo with A TAG I didn’t need quotes around cat photos. … cat photos

ALL TOGETHER …IT didn’t go through after I put the second quote around the URL last time, or around CAT PHOTOS, So had no quotes around Cat photos ,but did the front and backside of URL . The refreshing is what made it work. The LITTLE kittens page will show when you get it.
Thank you so much for your help ! And others responses previous.
I WAS DETERMINED TO FIGURE THIS OUT BEFORE DOING ANYTHING .LOL> NEVER GIVE UP …NEVER SURRENDER : ) THANKS ALL !
