Can someone please explain what exactly am I doing wrong on Task 3

I can't seem to figure out how to properly set the portfolio path properly?

index.html 
<!DOCTYPE html> 
<html>
  <head>
    <title>Portfolio Page</title>
    <a href="/#portfolio">...</a>
      <div id="portfolio">...</div>
  </head>
  <body>
    <img src="../img/logo.png" alt="Site logo">
    <ul>
      <a href="/index.html">...</a>
      <div id="/index.html">...</div>            
    </ul>
  </body>
</html>

You're off to a good start so far, Michael! however to assign the link to an id, you need to have a # sign in front of the id in the attribute. Here's an example:

<a href="#portfolio" > Portfolio </a>

<h2 id="portfolio"> Portfolio </h2>

hope this helps!

Thanks! The problem was I accidently added a '/' before the #portfolio.

<a href="#portfolio" > Portfolio </a>

<h2 id="portfolio"> Portfolio </h2>
