I noticed i left out a ">" after the ending li tag for the phone, however, a lot of the HTML still shows up in error. This includes a portion of the email line the ending ul tag section tag footer tag and more. Not sure what I did incorrectly

Congratulations on resolving your own issue. :+1:

Now you know that syntax highlighting is good for more than just looking pretty. :wink:

Ha ha I kept it around just to give it some more color. I was in such a rush the previous night, I never got around to looking over the syntax. So many missing semi colons! Thanks for the good laugh.

Good practice not to assume anything with your code! The instructor may have given you easy to follow instructions, but it's still easy to make mistakes. So check, then double check. Make sure you have all of your closing tags, parenthesis, etc. One missing bit, and it breaks!
