241 PointsThanks code.am. Code am thanks for being at least the best you can by not answering this question at all. Not only is the question a very clear question, you have a much better understanding of the problem than I do, that's why the question states " Nothing in my html code is working help? When I preview the page it's, well see for yourself. Here is the code." Not only did I give you the code to observe you failed to answer the question for any line of the question posted or code line, which is not numbered in this question because of copy and paste provisions. When posting to a forum please do not answer a question with a question. Also it's best not to try to answer a question when you don't know the answer, it make you look like you don't know the answer. Now for everyone whom attempted to answer the question It was something that Treehouse had to adjust for my profile and thanks for the effort. Code am you deserve a negative five for your post. Learn how to answer a post. Your action is yours don't be a bot for someone allowing them to control your response or action be proactive give the correct answer or advice.

After your doc type tag you should have an opening and closing html tag and then all your code should go in between your opening and closing html tag.
<html>
<body>
<body/>
<html/> this should be at the very end, enclosing all you code.

241 PointsThanks Melissa. There's nothing wrong with my code. Thanks for the help your code should look like this <html> <head></head> </html> of course include the doc type before anything on your document.
