I am trying to work with grids and I can not seem to get the code to work. Below is a snippet of the code I am working with. Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong?
<div class="container clearfix">
<div class="grid_4">
<img src="img/logo.gif" alt="Smells Like Bakin"
</div>
<ul class="nav">
<li><a href="#">About
<li><a href="#">Cupcakes & Prices
<li><a href="#">Locations
<li class="Last"><a href="#">Contact Us
</ul>
<div id="intro">
<h1>Opposites really do attract, escpecially in our kitchen! We combine unexpected flavors that melt togethter to create ironically delicious desserts.</h1>
<p><a href="#"class"btn">Browse our Cupcakes</a></p>

11,841 PointsYou are missing close tags on your elements
I think it helps a lot to organize your code this way…. when I create a new tag I always close it right away for example I will type <h1></h1> then put my text inside of it…that way I don't forget to close it
take a look at your code, see the missing close tags?
Hint - there are 6 missing in this code

249 PointsMaybe I need to go back in videos and try again. I think I am understanding about closing elements however I am not seeing where I need to close them. Thanks for helping!

249 PointsThank you! I see that mistake now. Hate to ask should have been more specific in the post. Can you tell me why it is not changing the layout when I refresh, like the video. In the video the list moves to the right of the logo. I pretty sure I have followed the code but its not working.
