Hey Wayne, seems like maybe you're putting it in the wrong area?

<div class="navbar">
    <div class="navbar-inner">
        <div class="container">
            <a class="brand">Treebook</a>
        </div>
    </div>
</div>

And the forums use Markdown for sytnax highlighting. You can see an easy way to format entire blocks of code in this post here.

I believe it should look something like this. 

<a href="#" class="brand">Treebook</a>

You are creating an anchor tag with the class "brand" and putting "Treebook" as the content of the anchor tag. Hope this helps.

Thank mike, but seems that the issue states:

There is no a tag in your navbar container. By the way, how do you paste in the codes above? I cant seem to add in my codes?

Thanks Sam, and great picture :) So here is the full script but seems adding below anywhere gives me this error: "Bummer! There is no a tag in your navbar container."

<a href="#" class="brand">Treebook</a>

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head>
    <title>Treebook</title>
    <%= stylesheet_link_tag 'application' %>
  </head>
  <body>
    <div class = "navbar">
    <div class = "navbar-inner">
        <div class = "container">
      </div>
    </div>
  </div>
    <div class = "container">
    <%= yield %>
  </div>
  </body>
</html>

Thanks Wayne! That <a> needs to go between

<div class = "container">
INSERT HERE
</div>

Tried it with your code exactly and it worked fine.
