Is there a reason why this isn't working?

Within my table quiz I am told to add a table cell with text into the row of my tables body. This is the result and it's saying it is incorrect.

<!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head> <title>HTML Tables Challenge</title> </head> <body> <h1>HTML Tables Challenge</h1>

<!-- Write your code below -->
    <table>
  <tr>
    <thead>
      <tr>
        <th>one</th>
        <th>two</th>
        </tr>
    </thead>
  </tr>
  <tbody>
        <tr>
        <td>text</td>
        </tr>
 </tbody>
</table>
</body>

</html>

Might need to be indented.

I figured it out, for some reason it wasn't working so I redid the code quiz and then it worked out.

Your original code has a <tr> wrapped around the thead. Maybe you didn't put that in when you redid it. This would be invalid html.
