I am struggling with my code: I have the first part correct, I get my navigation to show - but it doesn't hide.

I have the first part correct, I get my navigation to show - but it doesn't hide.

$(".main-nav").hide();


$(".menu-btn-container .menu-toggle").click(function() {
    $(".main-nav").show();
    $(".menu-btn-container").append("<a href='#' class='menu-toggle-off'><span class='menu-icon'><i class='fa fa-times'</i></span></a>");
    $(this).remove();
});

$(".menu-btn-container .menu-toggle-off").click(function() {
    $(".main-nav").hide();
});`

<i class='fa fa-times'

is missing the closing

Have you tried using toggle instead of declaring hide in the last declaration?
