Will you double check what you pasted in your post? It looks like there was suppose to be more.

```html
<p>This is code!</p>

3,932 PointsI got the same error to the same question, I think. The question only wants you to have exactly the number of items you need to answer the question. So delete any items you created that are not specifically requested by the scenario. I think you're supposed to have either two or three items. Do that and you should be good to go.
