placing header element

its asking me to place header element inside body tags. so I wrote out

<body> <header> </header> </body>

What is incorrect about this?

index.html
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head>
    <meta charset="utf-8">
    <title></title>
  </head>
  <body>
    <header>
      <h1>Blake</h1>
    </header>
  </body>
  <section></section>
  <footer></footer>
</html>

Hi.

You header element is OK, but the problem are section and footer. You add elements between the body tags, like this:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head>
    <meta charset="utf-8">
    <title></title>
  </head>
  <body>
    <header>
      <h1>Blake</h1>
    </header>
  <section></section>
  <footer></footer>
  </body>
</html>

Welcome ;)
