Problem with Jinja2 "unknown tag endblock"

Hello

I am getting an error for "TemplateSyntaxError", and it says "Encountered unknown tag 'endblock'."

layout.html:

<!doctype html>
<html>
    <head>
        <title>{% block title %}{% endblock %}</title>
     </head>
     <body>
            { % block content %}{% endblock %}
            <p>Brought to you by the fine folks at Treehouse!</p>
      </body>

</html>

index.html:

{% extends "layout.html" %}

{% block title %}Howy!{% endblock %}

{% block contect %}
<h1>Hello From {{name}}!</h1>
{% endblock %}

I think I found it, there was a space in my layout.html codes before "%". { % block content %} --> {% block content %}
