I completed the code challenge and the below code is from the second list you created - the unordered one. Not sure why you didn't pass (you didn't post the whole code), but you can check for yourself if it's something you're missing.

<ul>
    <li>Shapes
        <ol>
        </ol>
    </li>
    <li>Colors</li>
</ul>

I did post it, didn't come through I guess.... Ok I think I see where my error was... I had closed my shapes <li> before putting the ordered list... let me try like that and see if it works... thanks in advance if it goes through. -Jason
