I’ve edited your code for readability. 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 (').

thank you, again im sorry im pretty new here.

you need to add a new element, this time a paragraph element, whose name is p in html, what issues are you having with that?

I cant get pass that step, but i will try to figure it out and come back at it.

im just confused on how to apply this

you have create an h2 element last step, now you need to do the same with a p element, it will have an opening tag and a closing tag like the h2 element, and the text you are given as element text between the p opening tag and the p closing tag

so lets say instead of writing this

<h2/> See more cat photos in our gallery.<h2>

i write this
<p/> See more cat photos in our gallery.<p>

<h1/> is not an opening tag, an opening tag looks like <elementName>
<h1> is not a closing tag, a closing tag looks like </elementName>

Thank you well that fixed my issue i thought they all resulted to the same thing, thank you very much. again sorry for these simple mistakes.
