You need to set the 'href' attribute of the second <a> element to 'pies.html'.

is this a bug?

index.html 
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head>
    <title>Lists and Links</title>
  </head>
  <body>

  <ul>
  <a href="cakes.html"><li>Cakes</li></a>
  <a href="pies.html"><li>Pies</li></a>
  <a href="candy.html"><li>Candy</li></a>
    </ul>  
  </body>
</html>

Your links ("a" elements) need to be inside the list items ("li"). In the code shown, the list items are inside the links.

A good general rule to remember: all the direct children of a list (either "ul" or "ol') must be list items ("li").

No, the href attribute still goes with the link (a). So your tags are correct already, they are just in the wrong place.
