I think you are missing a closing > on your opening html tag.

Remember, a tag always starts with < and ends with >.

You’ll need to post your updated HTML in here so we can see what you did.

To display your code in here you need to wrap it in triple back ticks. On a line by itself type three back ticks. Then on the first line below the three back ticks paste in your code. Then below your code on a new line type three more back ticks. The back tick on my keyboard is in the upper left just above the Tab key and below the Esc key. You may also be able to use Ctrl+e to automatically give you the triple back ticks while you are typing in the this editor and the cursor is on a line by itself. Alternatively, with the cursor on a line by itself, you can use the </> button above the editor to add the triple back ticks.

You need to follow the instructions that I posted above for displaying your code in here. Please paste all of your HTML in here using the triple back tick technique.

Attributes go on the opening tag.
