If you look to the bottom right of the text box you will see something that says Markdown Cheetsheet. If you don't understand that maybe this will make sense: How to display code at Treehouse

Courses Plus Student 19,663 PointsExcellent, right I edited your post to add the correct MarkDown if you click edit now you can see how I did it. So the question says to add a DIV around the featured cupcake element and add the CLASSES container and clearfix. So the code below is how it is done.
<!DOCTYPE HTML>

<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"/>
<title>Smells Like Bakin' Cupcake Company</title>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="css/normalize.css" type="text/css" media="screen">
</head>
<body>
<div class="container clearfix"> // This line opens the div and adds the classes
<div id="featured-cupcake">
<h2>Cupcake of the Week</h2>
<img src="img/featured-cupcake.jpg">
</div>
</div> // This line closes the div
</body>
</html>
Does this clarify it for you?

30,164 PointsHow do post my code to the forum the way you did (its presentation and colors)
Adam Sackfield
Courses Plus Student 19,663 PointsIf you click edit on the answer you placed below I have edited to add correct formatting. But basically it's a blank line then () followed by the language ie (html) then a new line add your code then a new line (```) That's it :) Teame Gebru

Courses Plus Student 19,663 PointsCould you share your code, as without seeing it I am unable to posit why it is not doing as expected. You can add code to the forum using MarkDown link below comment box in bold :)
