521 PointsIt wants the root of the document entered.
I entered <html> and it won't accept. What is wrong here? I have gone back in the video and the listened to Nick speak and read the documentation, and it says the page root is <html>.

42,016 Pointsyou are correct that the root is the html tag, however you have to be sure and close the opening html tag like so.
<html>
</html>
if you only enter <html> it wont accept it as correct
