I'm on the code challenge for HTML Tables. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong. It says: Add a table heading tag to the table you just created. I added:
<table>
<tr>
<th>heading</th>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>row</td>
</tr>
</table>
When I check the work, it says this: Bummer! Try adding a table heading tag inside of the table.
It's probably the simplest thing and I'm just not seeing it. I even went back to watch the video all over.

Have you tried:
<table>
<thead>
<th>Heading</th>
</thead>
<tr>
<td>row</td>
</tr>
</table>
I hope this helps.

3,762 PointsYes, that worked, thank you. In the end, I don't think they phrased the question correctly. They asked me to add a heading (which I did - because it showed up in the preview) ... but, in fact, they were looking for me to add a header. Thank you for your quick response!
