that made no difference

can you post here all of your new code? You dont have to update the main post. Just use the format button which looks like </> then paste all your html between the lines it gives you

When I copy and paste your code it passes the challenge. There are a few steps you can try.

  1. Try restarting and refreshing the challenge to see if it will pass
  2. make sure you dont have any extensions running. Things like ad blocker, and dark mode can cause the challenge to fail.
  3. If none of the above work, then try submitting in the challenge in a different browser

will do
thank you so much

so I believe you need to close your div element on the same line. maybe?

yeah just close it out with </div>

My issue still hasn’t been resolved. This particular step isn’t compiling.
I’ve tried different browsers too.

Link to the challenge:

Have you tried turning off every single browser extension? Have you tried incognito/private mode?

Side note, “compiling” isn’t the word you are looking for.

it didn’t work
the syntax is surely correct though

When I go to my step 27 all I put was <div class="menu"></div> and it sends me through. I am very new to this though. I am just on step 70 right now.

Unfortunately, it wouldnt make sense to do that. The challenge puts the closing div tag towards the bottom of the code. Should not have to move that closing tag in order to pass the challenge. @arthmohan have you tried everything Jeremy suggested?

Hi
I found the solution to the problem.
My code was completely correct, but I ran it in a different browser and it worked instantly. There was some problem with Safari.
