Finally, add the data attribute that toggles the nav once the menu icon is clicked.

cant figurout. this is what i did.

<div class="navbar navbar-inverse navbar-fixed-top">
      <div class="container">
        <button type="button" class="navbar-toggle" data-toggle="collapse" data-target="navbar-collapse">
          <span class="icon-bar"></span>
          <span class="icon-bar"></span>
          <span class="icon-bar"></span>
        </button>
        <a class="navbar-brand text-muted" href="#">Ribbit</a>
        <div class="collapse navbar-collapse">
          <ul class="nav navbar-nav navbar-right">

Add a period before navbar-collapse.

data-target=".navbar-collapse"

Hi Mohammad, there is a quirk in the syntax for the way the class is defined for data-target. Take another look at 9:03 of the video and look closely at how that attribute is defined. I'm sure you'll see it, but circle back if still having trouble.
