Hi Christina,

If you have 

<thead>

</thead>

Then you would use the <tr> </tr> inside of them.

Christina;

What code do you have thus far? If you have gotten through the first two tasks your code should look something like:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head>
    <title>HTML Tables Challenge</title>
  </head>
  <body>
    <h1>HTML Tables Challenge</h1>

    <!-- Write your code below -->
    <table>
      <thead>
      </thead>
    </table>


  </body>
</html>

To add the table row inside the table header, you need to put <tr> and </tr> in between the <thead></thead> elements.

So, the table portion of the code would wind up looking like:

<table>
     <thead>
          <tr>
          </tr>
     </thead>
</table>

Make any sense?

Happy coding,

Ken
