16,618 PointsThe challenge i'm assuming you are having problems with is the 5/6 question, remove the following tags and it should work from your index.html file:
<!doctype html>, <html> and <body>
don't forget to remove the corresponding closing tags to the tags listed and don't include {% extends "layout.html" %} in the layout.html that's the file you are extending so only include it at the top of your index.html

230,688 PointsIt looks like when you enclosed the original HTML in a block, some of the markup tags got deleted. Apparently that step let you pass but a later step detected the contents as not being correct.
Start the challenge over, and be careful to preserve the tags when you add the block markers. Then when you get to the step Tlotlo mentioned (I'm not sure you were quite there yet), remember to remove everything that's not inside the markers.
