Stuck on task 4 & 5 in HTML code challenge

I have been trying all day to finish this quiz. I submit my answer for task 4 and it moves me on to 5 but when I submit my answer for five I get an Oops! It looks like Task 4 is no longer passing, then I have to re-do task 4.

I think u are getting mixed up a little. Make sure to check your opening and closing tags for each unordered list, ordered list and list item. For every opening tag there should be a closing tag.

There is a problem in your unordered list. The task asks u to add an ordered <ol> inside the Shapes <li>.

  <li>
    <ol>   
      <li></li>
      <li></li>
    </ol>      
  </li>

Good luck!

Hmmm, could have sworn while I was watching the video he did the same thing. Okay I'll double check that. Thank you!
