code challenge update

Since there is not a teacher to tell you what you have done wrong it would be nice if there was a copy of the correct code you can reference if you keep getting a part wrong. Since you are asking for something slightly different than what was in the work space it is quite frustrating when you can't figure out what you have done wrong.

What I tend to do when I can't figure out the answer is to copy and paste the question in google search, and usually there's one or two forum posts that will come up for team treehouse. There's bound to be someone else who has had the same problem as you are. It's worked for me every time I tried.

Sorry for the frustration James, but you'd just have to request the Treehouse team for that. As for the code challenge, here's the correct answer for it:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head>
    <meta charset="utf-8">
    <title>Nick Pettit</title>
  </head>
  <body>
    <header>
      <a href="index.html">
        <h1>Nick Pettit</h1>
        <h2>Designer</h2>
      </a>
      <nav>
        <ul>
          <li><a href="index.html">Portfolio</a></li>
          <li><a href="about.html">About</a></li>
          <li><a href="contact.html">Contact</a></li>
        </ul>
      </nav>
    </header>
    <section>
      <ul>
        <li>
          <img src="img/numbers-01.jpg" alt="">
        </li>
        <li>
          <img src="img/numbers-02.jpg" alt="">
        </li>
        <li>
          <img src="img/numbers-06.jpg" alt="">
        </li>
      </ul>
    </section>
    <footer>
      <p>&copy; 2013 Nick Pettit.</p>
    </footer>
  </body>
</html>

Hi James! I understand your frustration but it'd not make sense to provide answers for challenges as you earn points by answering them. You can post in the forum anytime you're stuck with a code challenge. As for the challenge you're stuck on, all you have to do is create empty unordered list tags in the section part of the document. Here's the correct answer to that:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head>
    <meta charset="utf-8">
    <title>Nick Pettit</title>
  </head>
  <body>
    <header>
      <a href="index.html">
        <h1>Nick Pettit</h1>
        <h2>Designer</h2>
      </a>
      <nav>
        <ul>
          <li><a href="index.html">Portfolio</a></li>
          <li><a href="about.html">About</a></li>
          <li><a href="contact.html">Contact</a></li>
        </ul>
      </nav>
    </header>
    <section>
      <ul>
        <li></li>
        <li></li>
        <li></li>
      </ul>
    </section>
    <footer>
      <p>&copy; 2013 Nick Pettit.</p>
    </footer>
  </body>
</html>

Hope this solves your problem :) Happy learning!

The page does not save what you got right. I got this part right, it was step two that I did not. Please understand where I am coming from. I personally do not care about the points, I just want to learn and there is a specific way that I know how I learn the fastest. I learn fastest when I fail and then can see what I did wrong and then do it again until I get it right. If I can't see what is right, I just find that frustrating.

Thank you, how do you request a change because seeing it right does help me understand what I did wrong.
