It keeps asking to add the src attribute when I already added it and it still gives incorrect answer.
<!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'>

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

Courses Plus Student 2,533 PointsIt seems this should work then.
<audio>
<source src="http://treehouse-code-samples.s3.amazonaws.com/html-video-and-audio/bridge-audio.mp3">
</audio>

<audio src="http://treehouse-code samples.s3.amazonaws.com/html-video-and-audio/bridge-audio.mp3" type="audio/mp3">
The
<audio controls>
that you've added before doesn't ruins the task apparently (Does not make difference)

Courses Plus Student 2,533 PointsI'm not sure what the assignment is saying as I haven't done it, but the code that I usually use for audio with no problems are:
<audio controls>
<source src="file.mp3" type="audio/mpeg">
</audio>
</TREagans>

35,561 PointsThe first task asks for an Audio self closing tag, so to continue put this:
<audio src="http://treehouse-code-samples.s3.amazonaws.com/html-video-and-audio/bridge-audio.mp3">

8,966 PointsYes this is the one that worked! But the rest of the code went out like this and it passed :
```<audio controls> <audio src="http://treehouse-code samples.s3.amazonaws.com/html-video-and-audio/bridge-audio.mp3" type="audio/mp3">
Oh yeah and it closes with the "audio" tag.
Weird...
