Keeps saying "bummer. You need to set the "href" attribute of the 2nd <a> elements to 'pies.html'

In HTML basic challenge task 2 of 2. It says to make the text inside each item a link. the first item should link to cakes.html, the second to pies.html, and the third to candy.html. I'm writing all answers the same but it repeatedly says "bummer. You need to set the "href" attribute of the 2nd <a> elements to 'pies.html' I'm writing it like <a href="pies.html">pies</a> not sure what else to put.

Did you try the preview feature to see that it worked OK before submitting? I just tried this:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head>
    <title>Lists and Links</title>
  </head>
  <body>
    <ul>
      <li><a href="cakes.html">Cakes</a></li>
      <li><a href="pies.html">Pies</a></li>
      <li><a href="candy.html">Candy</a></li>
    </ul>
  </body>
</html>

and it worked ok. Check what you have missing.

Also check your case. The code checker is case-sensitive, so pies is not the same as Pies and will fail.
