Structuring Content

Hi

I am stuck on this task

Place the ul, h1 and p elements at the top of the page inside an element that represents a group of introductory or navi

I placed an opening <nav> tag on lines underneath the <body> tag. I also placed a closing </nav> tag after the </p> tag.

Keep getting an error:

Make sure you're including an element that represents a group of introductory or navigational content.

Thanks

Hi Kevin.

Try replacing the closing nav element so it appears immediately after the closing </ul>

The heading and paragraph elements are not part of the main navigation.

Good luck!

Hi Jonathan

Thanks for getting back to me. Tried that and still get the same error: "Make sure you're including an element that represents a group of introductory or navigational content."

Okay.. let's try something completely different because I think this is where we both went wrong.

Forget about the nav elements (although they do go where I mentioned.

I should have picked up on this before but the the element you want is header. Surround the elements in that tag. :)
