Make sure you add an image tag that displays: "img/numbers-01.jpg"

I had done it with all info like this: <li> <a href="img/numbers-01.jpg"> <img src="img/numbers-01.jpg" alt=""> <p>img/numbers-01.jpg</p> </a> </li> and as it is on the code I did. I don't know where the mistake is. Please help, I can't come any further... thanks

All thats wanted is the link to the images in the file tree, so here is the code (task 1 and 2)

<section>
      <ul>
        <li><img src="img/numbers-01.jpg" alt=""></li>
        <li><img src="img/numbers-02.jpg" alt=""></li>
        <li><img src="img/numbers-06.jpg" alt=""></li>
      </ul>
 </section>

Caleb is right, you should paste that and it is going to work, but let me explain what you did wrong, so you are not going to repeat these mistakes again.

Firstly, you have learned that a tag starts with less than sign and ends with greater than sign. Did you respect this completely in your code? I don't think so, just look here:

 <li>
  <a
    img src="img/numbers-02.jpg" alt="">
    <p>img/numbers-02.jpg</p>
  </a>
</li>

Anchor tag and Image tag are not completely typed, so you need to complete them. Just do what Caleb did and everything should work fine.

 <li>
  <a>
    <img src="img/numbers-02.jpg" alt="">
    <p>img/numbers-02.jpg</p>
  </a>
</li>

I hope that it helps!

I did the same thing Nils, but when I copy and pasted in the entry from caleb I was able to get the correct answer.
