Hi aprille manongsong,

May I suggest rewatching the HTML Entities and Reserved Characters video.
Or if you just want the answer ....

ampersand is: &amp;
copyright is: &copy;

Best of luck and happy coding :dizzy:
Dave

It says "replace the ampersand and copyright with an html entity" so I tried different entities and the answer is still wrong.. Thanks btw

Ok, Ill write it out...

<!DOCTYPE html> 
<html>
  <head>
    <title>My Page</title>
  </head>
  <body>
    <h3>Design &amp; Development</h3>
    <p>Contact me at <a href="mailto:april_21@hotmail.it">this email</a>.</p>
    <p>&copy; 2017</p>
  </body>
</html>

That will pass both challenges . Hope that makes more sense ...

Kind regards,
Dave
