I cannot figure out what error I am making. It says I need to put a closing a tag somewhere. I put it at the end, and I cannot figure out where else I need to put it.
Your code so far

<html>
  <body>
    <main>
      <h1>CatPhotoApp</h1>
      <h2>Cat Photos</h2>

Do I need to copy this directly or just erase what I already have? It doesn’t make sense to copy that line of code and put it after the img and anchor elements that exist in my code currently.

I guess I don’t have a good idea of what they are wanting me to do other than embed the img into the anchor tag and change the link.

I figured it out. But they need to be more clear on what they want you to do. I thought based on the wording that they wanted me to edit the existing code that had an anchor element and href attribute and close it off. Turns out I needed to add a whole other line of code to the mix that had another anchor element and href attribute. It was very confusing the way the prompt was laid out.

can you show the answer of it? I’m having the same struggles with it myself
