Hi Chiemaka,

you can always skip by just by clicking the next part in the nav bar above the video / quizzes / challenges window…

But generally spoken I would not reccromend to quit any code challenge. Sometimes it can be really annoying if it takes a while to find the solution - i know that very well. But in the long run, you will learn a a lot if you stick till you find the solution… In your coding journey you will come accross MANY unexpected challenges and it's crucial to learn how to solve them.

Most of the times when you can't figure out a challenge here at treehouse, I would reccomend watching the last (few) video(s) again and take notes. Probably 90% of the problems you can solve that way.

But you can always use this community forum to give you hints.

Here is mine:

To make text inside a list a link you go like this:

<ul>
  <li><a href=“#“>List-item 1</a></li>
  <li><a href=“#“>List-item 2</a></li>
  <li><a href=“#“>List-item 3</a></li>
</ul>

"#" in the example is just a placeholder for the correct href value of the link.

Does that make sense to you? Do you understand how to apply it to this challenge task? Feel free to ask if not...

Happy coding, Nils

Here is what I did, can you tell me what's wrong.

<ul> <li><a href="#">Cakes.html</a></li> <li><a href="#">Pies.html</a></li> <li><a href="#">Candy.html</a></li> </ul>

Hi Omar,

if you present your code I can surly help you.

Without any code I can only guess you made some spelling mistake...

Because one thing is pretty certain: If you don't pass a challenge, there is some problem with your code.

Best wishes, Nils
