After entering in the 'src' element correctly, it will not allow me to continue- it reads as an error. Please help?

Question

What I entered into the code:

How is this 'src' element entered wrong?

index.html

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head>
    <meta charset="utf-8">
    <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">
    <title>HTML Video and Audio</title>

    <link rel="stylesheet" href="normalize.css">
    <link href='http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Nunito:400,300' rel='stylesheet' type='text/css'>
    <link rel="stylesheet" href="main.css">
  </head>
  <body>

    <h1>HTML Video and Audio</h1>

    <div class="wrapper">
      <audio>
        <source src="http://treehouse-code-samples.s3.amazonaws.com/html-video-and-audio/bridge-audio.mp3">
      </audio>
      <!-- Add your code below this line -->


    </div>

  </body>
</html>

The src element isnt whats causing the error. You forgot to complete the first part of the audio tag, it should be

```<audio controls></audio>

It could also be because you didn't add the code below the the line indicated.

A correction needs to be made in the objective lesson. Simply change the source to audio.

Use: <audio src="http://treehouse-code-samples.s3.amazonaws.com/html-video-and-audio/bridge-audio.mp3">

instead of: <source src="http://treehouse-code-samples.s3.amazonaws.com/html-video-and-audio/bridge-audio.mp3">
