Hi @artitus1

Just a few fix ups needed.

  1. The first opening div tag needs a closing angled bracket.
  2. The second opening div tag needs an opening angled bracket.
  3. The second div element needs a closing tag.

Close the container div > bracket is missing,and also close the marker div before and after place<> bracket to it. And also you need closing tag for marker div .

Isn't </div> the closing tag??

Ive done that and its still not working

Can anyone help I’ve been stuck on this forever!!!

You didn’t close your div element. Do that and it’ll work.

how is it not closed?!?!

The marker div element within your other div isn’t closed, even though there is a div next to it, it doesn’t mean it’s closed. Do that.

Please post your full code

when i try this happens

Welcome to FCC forum, Close your first div with a grater than > then on your second div you you need less than <, then close your second div off with a </div> and your code should pass, good luck coding!

You are correct but what hes trying to tell you is that your first div should start like this <div> you have to close the first tag with a > then complete it with </div> hope it helps.

Let me know how you get on :technologist:
