Oops, try again. Don’t forget to make your href! Check out the example.
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title></title>
</head>
<body>
<a> <a href="http://www.codecademy.com"> </a>
</body>
</html>
so I deleted "<a " and it still didnt work
can we see an updated version of your code?
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title></title>
</head>
<body>
<href="http://www.codecademy.com"> </a>
</body>
</html>
that didn’t make it much better, lets look at your old code:
<a> <a href="http://www.codecademy.com"> </a>
you have two opening tags, while should have just one opening tag (attributes can be added to opening tags with creating additional opening tags)
the <a>
is still important, but only one
original code:
<a> <a href="http://www.codecademy.com"> </a>
</body>
i know, but you have two opening tags:
<a><a>
you only need one, attributes can be added to the opening tag, without creating a second opening tag in the process
What @stetim94 tried to tell you is that you need to delete the first “a” and type the rest in the tags like so:
<a href="http://www.codecademy.com"> </a>
delete the first one you mean? The one without href attribute
Yea ik sorry my bad. i edited it
So yeah, remove the first <a>
and leave the rest as it is
I tried deleting the first it but wont work so I got this new code
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title></title>
</head>
<body>
<a href="http://www.codecademy.com"> </a>
</body>
</html>
still the same error message? There should text between the opening and closing tag, so you have to actually click on, to open the link
Well that’s the code you needed to type 
the error code Im getting now Oops, try again. Don’t forget to add a description! Check out the example.
You need to describe the link you put.
To describe something, you do like:
<a href="www.codecademy.com">DESCRIBE</a>
where it says “DESCRIBE” you write something like:
<a href="www.codecademy.com">I love Coding</a>
Or anything you want that link to say and then, others will see this code as a HyperText like:
I Love Coding
