Tell us what’s happening:
Within the first tr, add a th element with the text Loans The outstanding balance on our startup loan.. Wrap that text, except for Loans , within a span element with the class set to description.

Add three td elements below that, and give them the following text, in order: $500, $250, and $0. Give the third td element a class set to current.

This is what the propmpt said. I have done everything instructed but my code doesn’t work. Is there something I’m missing

you have too many spaces in your span element.
for eg this:
<span> a space in front and at the end why? </span>
while
<span>no spaces except what they asked for</span>

notice the difference?
