A very beginner. I don't see the error regarding the links.

Challenge task was to make links from list each to cakes.html, pies.html, candy.html.

    <li><a href="cakes.html">Cakes</a></li>
    <li><a href="pies.html">Pies</a></li>
    <li><a href="candy.html">Candy</a></li>

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head>
    <title>Lists and Links</title>
  </head>
  <body>
    <ul>
      <li>Cakes</li>
      <li>Pies</li>
      <li>Candy</li>
    </ul>

    <li><a href="cakes.html">Cakes</a></li>
    <li><a href="pies.html">Pies</a></li>
    <li><a href="candy.html">Candy</a></li>


  </body>
</html>

Mod Edit: Fixed code formatting. See comment for how to do this in your forum posts.

When posting on the forums, you can format your code nicely using a bit of markdown.

```html

Your code here!

Okay, so the good news is you're on the right track. Generally Treehouse challenges want you to build on your answer from the previous step. So in this case, you want to be changing the code from the first part. 

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head>
    <title>Lists and Links</title>
  </head>
  <body>
    <ul> <!-- This is the working code from the first part. Good job! -->
      <li>Cakes</li>
      <li>Pies</li>  <!-- You want to replace these normal list items with the link list items you did below. -->
      <li>Candy</li>
    </ul>

    <!-- This code is correct for the second part, but you've added it on instead of replacing the earlier code. -->
    <li><a href="cakes.html">Cakes</a></li> 
    <li><a href="pies.html">Pies</a></li>
    <li><a href="candy.html">Candy</a></li>
  </body>
</html>

Hopefully that gets you to a solution, but let me know if you're still having trouble and I'll be happy to answer any follow up questions. Nice work, and happy coding!
