"Task 2 no longer passing"

I am learning how to list tags and I don't see what I am doing wrong. It says "it looks like Task 2 is no longer passing." How can fix this so I can move on to the next challenge. Thanks in advance

index.html 
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head>
    <meta charset="utf-8">
    <title>Nick Pettit</title>
  </head>
  <body>
    <header>
      <a href="index.html">
        <h1>Nick Pettit</h1>
        <h2>Designer</h2>
      </a>
      <nav>
        <ul>
          <li><a href="index.html"Portfolio></a></li>
          <li><a href="about.html"About></a></li>
          <li><a href="Contact.html"Contact></a></li>
        </ul>

      </nav>
    </header>
    <section></section>
    <footer>
      <p>&copy; 2013 Nick Pettit.</p>

Your code need to look like this:

<ul> <li><a href="index.html">Portfolio</a></li> <li><a href="about.html">About</a></li> <li><a href="Contact.html">Contact</a></li> </ul>

Usually when it says, Task 2 no longer passing, its because, you have made some modifications to the code, that is not in the following task.

Typically, when you're completing the task challenges, you don't want to touch or mess with anything you've previously typed in from the task before.

Looking at your code, the words Portfolio, About, and contact need to be outside the anchor element, but between the two tags. It should look like this:

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