4,983 PointsWhy is the spacing of my Nav elements off? There is a large gap between "Portfolio" and "About" in my navigation bar.
I followed the HTML and CSS code for the nav element, but there is a large gap between "Portfolio" and "About" in the navigation bar.

4,150 PointsHi Ben, I found a small error in your code: Portfolio<a/>. Should be </a>. Maybe that's causing the gap.

You have exactly the same issue in "about.html" and "contact.html", too.

Use the "snapshot" function in the workspace and post the link it gives you here.
