Add a nested ordered list to the Shapes line item

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head>
    <title>HTML Lists Challenge</title>
  </head>
  <body>

    <h1>HTML Lists Challenge</h1>

    <!-- Write your code below -->
    <ol>
      <li>Stop</li>
      <li>Drop</li>
      <li>Roll</li>

    <ul>
      <li>Shapes</li>

Hi Geoffrey,

You are not nesting the ordered list inside of the Shapes list item. Don't add the closing Shapes /li tag until after the ordered list. Also, what is the one list item inside the ordered list? Get rid of it.

Jeff

Thank you Jeff! I did that and it worked. I had gone through the lesson and the coding appeared to work when I previewed it. I guess it wasn't proper documentation though. Thank you again... ;)
