Hi everyone, so for this exercise i keep getting an error: “After the <img> element, did you create a <video> element that contains the provided video url?”

and this is the video element that I have included after the image element. Image element included for context:
image

What have i done wrong?

3

Which step is giving the error?

This was for step 3. I fiddled with it and ended up with:

image

Not sure what I did, if anything, but it worked in the end for some reason

Just finished this exercise. I’m unsure on a couple of placement things… 1) answer code shows the video element as being indented underneath the image element. Wouldn’t this suggest that the video element is a child of the image element? I had thought they would be siblings. 2) Does the placement matter for “Video not supported” and the video closing tag? Our lesson example shows them each taking up a new line below the opening video tag but the answer code shows them flowing one into another. I believe they yield the same result but would like to know the correct way to do it.
Thx!
