Portfolio link not working

I am currently learning how to add new pages to my website via workspace.

I just finished making the about me page and when I click Portfolio link , I get the 404 error.

That is my home page

Do you see anything wrong with the coding?

  <nav>
    <ul>
      <li><a href="index.html"class="selected">Portfolio</a></li>
      <Li><a href="about.html">About</a></Li>
      <Li><a href="contact.html">Contact</a></Li>

Hey Michael,

Do you have closing tags for your ul and nav tags? Those might be messing things up.

Also, add a space between href="index.html" and class="selected".

You should also make sure that the file you are trying to link to is called index.html and is in the same folder as the page that you are linking from.
