I ran into a problem in step 12 of the HTML-CSS. I followed instruction and created a link. It seemed to work when i clicked on the link, but not sure why it didn’t pass. Here is my code

```auto
     <p><a href="https://freecatphotoapp.com">cat photos.</a></p>
      <a href="https://freecatphotoapp.com">link to cat pictures</a>

```

when I clicked on the link cat photos it seemed to work, but i don’t know why i received an error on this.  
//  
Hints: The link’s text should be cat photos. You have either omitted the text or have a typo.  
// I don’t know what did i do wrong. Just can’t figure it out.

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.

 ![Pre-formatted-text](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/freecodecamp/original/3X/1/b/1b18854f1059217f29370444396145cc3a0cd8ae.gif)

See [this post](https://forum.freecodecamp.org/t/forum-code-formatting/25574) to find the backtick on your keyboard.  
**Note:** Backticks (`) are not single quotes (').

I would suggest reseting the lesson.

You are not supposed to have 2 links on the page.

This is incorrect

> ```auto
> <p><a href="https://freecatphotoapp.com">cat photos.</a></p>
> <a href="https://freecatphotoapp.com">link to cat pictures</a>
> 
> ```

You should only have one link on the page.

Here is the starting code the lesson gave you

```auto
 <p>See more cat photos in our gallery.</p>
 <a href="https://freecatphotoapp.com">link to cat pictures</a>

```

The words cat photos here needs to be a link

> [@nguyen123](#):
>
> `cat photos`

The final result should display this on the screen.
