Code Challenge: Images and Lists — <ul> </ul> discrepencies.

Hi guys,

I've been working through the beginning module for how to build a website, but when I come across step 4/4 in the code challenge for the "Images and Lists" section I receive an error stating:

add three list elements to the unordered list

However, my code is as follows

<ul>
    <li><a href="#">About</a></li>
    <li><a href="#">Cupcakes</a></li>
    <li><a href="#">Locations</a></li> 
</ul>

Perhaps someone can clarify at which point I failed to do so?

Thanks very much

Should be <ul class="nav"> after add the elements

Not sure if this will help, have you tried adding the list elements WITHOUT the 'a href'.

<li>About</li>

If that does not help, please post a link to the challenge.

I noticed this problem from the challenge before it won't accept </ul> at the end after messing around it accepted <ul/> But now I'm having a same problem with the challenge your on. When I get it wrong it says Add three list elements to the ORDERED LIST which is weird because above it says unordered. Very confusing.

Mike Kohl I've added elements with / without the 'href' to the same result — I've since moved past this phase of direcitonals and things seem to run a bit more smoothly in the following demos and quizzes, however I just wanted to bring it up for the sake of consistency and clarity.
