Hello guys, I don't know why I got stuck at this challenege even everything is fine but when i check my work it says ( Bummer! You need to set the 'href' attribute of the second <a> element to 'pies.html'), Although I did it (<a href="pies.html"> <li>Pies</li></a>) so Idk is it a bug with the Ide or what? Thanks in advance

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

you are forgetting the <li> and </li> need to before the <a> and after the </a> tags. see my example below

<!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>

Just copy and paste that into your task, it will pass then.

<!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>
