20,597 PointsHandling Errors Using Dialogs task 2
For some reason I'm getting the error Bummer! It looks like you're missing a <string> element inside the <resources> root element.
when the task is Now switch to strings.xml and add two strings, one named 'dialog_title' and the other named 'dialog_message'. Make the values whatever you choose (just not blank!).
and my code has too string in it as you can see below
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<resources>
<String name="dialog_title">oh no!</String>
<String name="dialog_message">Please try again</String>
</resources>
Can someone help and tell me where it is i am going wrong

Treehouse TeacherHi Stephan Hanna on the line before it and three backticks on the line below it, like this:
```xml
<string name="test">Blah blah!</string>
```
<string name="test">Blah blah!</string>

490 PointsI'm having a similar problem with a simple image file. I put the link in my challenge task window, on the left, and the page comes up exactly the way it should, on the right, but I get the error anyway. Please help.
