I am adding a heading to the table but it's keep on giving me bummer!

Something is wrong with the question I've been asked to put a heading on to

index.html 
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head>
    <title>HTML Tables Challenge</title>
  </head>
  <body>
    <h1>HTML Tables Challenge</h1>

    <table>
<thhead>
      <tr>
        <th>There are my favourite fruits</th> 
<tr>
  <td>Veggies</td> </tr>
</tr>
    </table>
    </thhead>

  </body>
</html>

A few things here:

1) you are trying to use "thhead", but it should be "thead"...you have one too many h's in there... 2) you are trying to open a new row before your first row is closed... 3) your close thead tag needs to be before your closing table tag...

like this: 

<table>
  <thead>
    <tr>
      <th>There are my favourite fruits</th> 
    </tr>
  </thead>
  <tr>
    <td>Veggies</td> 
  </tr>
</table>

Hi Akshay,

Just try and take the challenges 1 step at a time. Task 2 of 8 asks you to "Add a table heading tag to the table you just created."

So all you need to do at this stage is to add the opening and closing table heading tags.

<table>
  <thead>
  </thead>
</table>

and as Jake has already pointed out you had 1 too many h's in the tag.
