Error setting link to navigate to correct section of the page

To set the portfolio link to navigate to the page with the id portfolio, I changed the attribute tag for the list item “Portfolio” to <a href=“/#portfolio”>, but I’m receiving an error. What am I doing wrong?

index.html 
<!DOCTYPE html> 
<html>
  <head>
    <title>Portfolio Page</title>
  </head>
  <body>
    <img src="../img/logo.png" alt="Site logo">
    <ul>
      <li><a href="/">Home</a></li>
      <li><a href="/#portfolio">Portfolio</a></li>                
    </ul>
    <h1 id="portfolio">My Portfolio</h1>
  </body>
</html>

Remove the / in front of #portfolio from your anchor element in your list item.

<li><a href="#portfolio">Portfolio</a></li>
