Challenge Task 2 of 3-- Add three <ul> items; Stage 3 of "Creating HTML Content" will not complete

Task 2 of this challenge asks me to create an unordered list with "Portfolio", "About", and "Contact" inside of the navigation tag under my <header> (I passed the first challenge task by creating the navigation tag and one unordered list item). I keep getting an error message, even though the preview shows an unordered list under my Header on the exercise with those items. Am I missing something here or not understanding the question? Thank you!

I've posted what I used for my code below (I intentionally added * to tags so that they would display):

<*nav> <*ul>Portfolio</*ul> <*ul>About</*ul> <*ul>Contact</*ul> </*nav>

you need to create a unordered list using the ul tag with three list items in li tags inside that:

what you currently have:

<nav>
  <ul>Portfolio</ul>
  <ul>About</ul>
  <ul>Contact</ul>
</nav>"

just makes three unordered lists. you need one unordered list with 3 list items:

<nav>
  <ul>
    <li>Portfolio</li>
    <li>About</li>
    <li>Contact</li>
  </ul>

</nav>"
