the links for my website aren't really working?

i can click the links and they work individually, but once i click the link (such as clicking the "About" tab/link) i cant go back to the portfolio tab. it tells me the url was not found. any suggestions of what could be wrong?

To post your code, first copy it from your workspace. Then here in your forum post, where you want to place your code, type 3 backticks (key above the tab) immediately followed by "html" (but without the quotes). Hit enter to start a new line and paste your code. Put a new line after your pasted code, and then type 3 more backticks.

The only thing I see weird is your href format, but that would only throw certain browsers off I think It was a bug if Firefox a long time ago.

<a href = "index.html">Portfolio</a>

versus no extra whitespace

<a href="index.html">Portfolio</a>

Other than that, did you accidentally rename your index.html to something else?

Make sure the anchor tags in your about.html and contact.html files are pointed toward index.html and not something different like portfolio.html.

<a href="index.html">Portfolio</a>

This is just a guess without actually seeing your code. Typos usually account for most problems.
