Problem with html tag

Tell us what’s happening:
I just have to add an html tag with the DOCTYPE attribute, but the system don’t take it like a correct answer. I have read the forum with the same problem but the answers didn´t help me out. I’ve tried different ways but nothing
I’ll wait for your comments.
Thanks in advance.

@josuewleen Hello, i see the problem. Well, DOCTYPE is not an attribute but it is an element. and the lesson asked you to add it as a new line on the top. but we don’t mean to change the html opening tag.

I see… I assume it was the same tag but DOCTYPE it’s an element completely different.
Many thanks

It is fine. I can understand and it could be confusing first place. But i am glad about you asked a help. So we can explain what going on.

Good luck!
