The Problem is that you didn't put the href="#top" inside the <a> tag. The right answer would be <a href="#top">

This is more-so of an observation than a problem I'm having. I noticed I was marked wrong in my answer:

<a href="#">

The answer is <a href="#top"> .... However, the video lists that the social media icons had this code initially and it functioned just as <a href="#">. Not sure if using <a href="#top"> is more-so "best practice", but I thought it was interesting my answer was incorrect.
