extend layout task, any reason why this isn't passing?

Now, in the "list.html" template, extend "layout.html" (which is in the "code_challenges" directory).

Bummer! We accessed list.html, but can't find the content of layout.html. Did you extend "code_challenges/layout.html" within list.html?

code_challenges/templates/code_challenges/layout.html 
<html>
    <head>
        <title>{% block tile %} Code Challenge {% endblock %}</title>
    </head>
    <body>
        <div class="page-header">
            <!-- YOUR CODE HERE -->

        </div> 
    </body>
</html>
code_challenges/templates/code_challenges/list.html 
{% extends "code_challenges/layout.html" %}

Try single quotes in list.html? Perhaps that may help.

Hi Shana,

Your code in task 2 is fine. The issue is actually in the code you wrote for task 1. You put the {% block %} tags in the <title> tag, which is not what the challenge asked for. Notice in "layout.html" there is a comment in the page-header div that says "YOUR CODE HERE".

I'm not sure why your code still passed task 1, but I tried it and it does for some reason. If you redo task 1 then you should be able pass task 2 with the code you have.

Good luck.
