Customizing Django Templates Task 3

I feel like my code is correct for Task 3 but it won't pass anyway I tweak it. Any suggestions...

code_challenges/templates/code_challenges/layout.html 
<html>
    <head>
        <title>Code Challenge</title>
    </head>
    <body>
        <div class="page-header">
           {% block sect %}
           {% endblock %}
        </div> 
    </body>
</html>
code_challenges/templates/code_challenges/list.html 
{% extends 'code_challenges/layout.html' %}

{% block content %}
<h1>Welcome to the code challenges!</h1>
{% endblock %}

Hi, Chris. Very close! Although you're not able to override the block in layout.html because your two blocks have different names('content' and 'sect'). Give both blocks the same name, and the block in list.html will be able to override the block in layout.html, and the challenge will pass.
