System telling me I forgot to add something between <html> tags, but I did
Hi,
After entering some tags and text in between the
Here is the code that I entered:
<!DOCTYPE HTML>
<html><p>This is a new paragraph on the HTML page.</p>
<p>Now I will present an unordered list:</p>
<ul><li>Item One</li>
<li>Item Two</li>
<li>Item Three</li>
<li>Item Four</li>
</ul></html>
Here is the error message that I get from the system:
Oops, try again! Don’t forget to write something between your tags!
I tried simplifying the code to:
<!DOCTYPE HTML>
<html><p>This is a new paragraph on the HTML page.</p></html>
I still get the same error message after clicking “Save and Submit Code”. Is there a problem with the system or did I interpret the instructions incorrectly?
Thanks.

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<p>This is a paragraph</p>
</html>

Thank you for your input Michele. I tried your suggestion before you or Eyadoo had a chance to respond to my original question and it seemed to solve the problem. I added another comment to the thread that I started explaining that I had figured out what I did wrong, but for some reason the comment didn’t get added to the thread. I apologize. Next time I will verify that all my comments are on the thread. Thanks again.

Thank you for the suggestion. Breaking up the code into separate lines seemed to solve the problem. I had resolved my problem before you and Michele had a chance to respond and I posted what I had done so everyone would know that I solved the problem, but for some reason my last comment did not get added to the conversation thread. I apologize. I will verify that all my comments are added before I leave the forum from now on. Thanks again.
