levi1,

your div elements need a “>” i think.
example:

3

Which one? Because if I close off after "container ", that means that the two new div elements are no longer within the intended area, and the first new div isn’t correct either?

thanks

It’s all good.
Just close everyone of those.
it needs to be paired.

That hasnt worked the hint says; " your second new div element should have an opening tag.".

But there is a tag there, so I’m now at a road block.

Thanks

yes if you check your code you lack this: “>”
right after the “marker”

7

also after the value “container”
