All of the tasks in this challenge will involve putting semantic container elements around parts of the provided content. You won't be adding any new empty elements.

Be careful to place each added container according to the instructions.

I don't understand what is wrong... the issue should be with the <nav>

For example: Task 1 says "Place the ul, h1 and p elements at the top of the page inside an element that represents a group of introductory content."

But looking at the code above:

    <header>      <!-- a header tag "represents a group of introductory content" ... -->
    </header>     <!-- ... but this one has nothing inside it -->
    <section>     <!-- the instructions have not asked for a "section" element -->

    <nav>         <!-- the instructions have not asked for a "nav" element -->
    <ul>                                                 <!--   -\    -->
      <li><a href="#">About</a></li>                     <!--    |    -->
      <li><a href="#">Work</a></li>                      <!--    |    -->
      <li><a href="#">Contact</a></li>                   <!--    |    -->
    </ul>                 <!--  this ul, h1, and p have not been placed inside a header  -->
    </nav>                                               <!--    |    -->
                                                         <!--    |    -->
    <h1>My Web Design &amp; Development Portfolio!</h1>  <!--    |    -->
    <p>A site featuring my latest work.</p>              <!--   _/    -->

Does that make it more clear?

The "help/hints" portion of this site is trash.
