Learn HTML Forms by Building a Registration Form - Step 2

Tell us what’s happening:
I feel a bit silly by opening a post about this but, I am unable to go step 2 here because the system does not recognise my code as valid. I get the prompt " Your html element should have a closing tag." - which does. and all the other projects so far had the same first two lines, I went back and checked and they all look exactly the same. I tried a few variations to non avail.

Your code so far


<!-- User Editable Region -->

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">

<!-- User Editable Region -->

Hi there and welcome to our community!

The html element should have both an opening tag and a closing tag. You only have an opening tag.

The content of your HTML document will all be nested between the opening and closing html tags.
