<Tags> highlighted in red

Hi: My last three tags are highlighted in red on my workspaces: ///html </div> </body> </html>

Does that indicated that I've done something wrong?

Here's a link on Codepen with all of my code:

Thanks! Kevin

Hi Kevin,

I ran your code through the w3c html validator and you do have some errors. http://validator.w3.org/#validate_by_input

You have a ul tag placed before the <section> element

<div id="wrapper">
      <ul id="gallery">
    <section>
      <ul>

You should only have 1 start ul tag there and it should be after <section>

LIke this:

<div id="wrapper">
    <section>
      <ul id="gallery">

Also, you should not have spaces in your filenames.

You have <img src="img/twitter logo.png" alt="Twitter Logo">

Either use an underscore or hyphen where you would like to have a space, twitter_logo.png or you have to url encode spaces and replace with %20. ex. twitter%20logo.png

I recommend that you just use underscores or hyphens as it's cleaner than having %20's everywhere.

When I check it out, it doesn't show any tags in red. It does show a little warning message that states that you don't need to put the <!DOCTYPE html> on there, though.
