I can't get past task 3. It says I'm typing the URL wrong, but I'm writing exactly what I see. How can I fix this?

I'm stuck here

index.html 
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head>
    <meta charset="utf-8">
    <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">
    <title>HTML Video and Audio</title>

    <link rel="stylesheet" href="normalize.css">
    <link href='http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Nunito:400,300' rel='stylesheet' type='text/css'>
    <link rel="stylesheet" href="main.css">
  </head>
  <body>

    <h1>HTML Video and Audio</h1>

    <div class="wrapper">

      <!-- Add your code below this line -->
      <video><source src="http://treehouse-code-samples.s3.amazonaws.com/hhtml-video-and-audio/bridge.mp4" type="video/mp4"></video>

    </div>

  </body>
</html>

When I type the URL into my browser it displays an XML Error message and says Access Denied

Oh i see, you have an extra h in html The url should be : http://treehouse-code-samples.s3.amazonaws.com/html-video-and-audio/bridge.mp4

Not: http://treehouse-code-samples.s3.amazonaws.com/hhtml-video-and-audio/bridge.mp4

Lol, see the little difference?

It looks like you've got it right but these code challenges can be picky. :)

If you haven't already, try copying and pasting the link provided directly into the src attribute and remove any forward slash from the end of the source tag.

Good luck. :-)

Unfortunately, this code challenge doesn't allow you to copy text from the task.
