Let’s have a look at your code, and add html code comments to help.

<!--one article element-->

            <p>3.75</p>
          </article>
<!--two article element?-->
          <article>
            <p>Pumpkin Spice</p>
            <p>3.50</p>
<!-- three article element-->
          <article>
            <p>Hazelnut</p>
            <p>4.00</p>
          </article>
<!--four article element-->
          <article>
            <p>Mocha</p>

I mean to specify that it was asking for 2 “

” elements, but the "<"character seems to be a code for newline.

It’s because the forum will use any html tags you type. It’s making a new paragraph because you’ve written an opening <p> element tag. In future use the code formatting button when typing any html code into the forum.

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.

See this post to find the backtick on your keyboard.
Note: Backticks (`) are not single quotes (').

Hello.

Look the code that @Griff says.

Do you close the tag article in the number two? Check this.
