Treehouse TeacherHi there! First off, you're doing really well! The problem here lies in the fact that it actually can't see your second link. The reason it can't see it is because you forgot to close off all your links. Remember, they should start with an <a>
tag, but they should end with a </a>
tag.
I think you can get it with this hint, but let me know if you're still stuck!
