Removing the www. from your a element will pass your solution.

[systimotic]

Good catch @KonSal! Should we update the tests to optionally allow www.?

[ghost]

In the assignment they give us the example of http://freecatphotoapp.com. I don't know why someone will put www on it's own when it's not needed or even mentioned.

[KonSal]

Wouldn't that be somewhat of an inconsistency, given that in the following challenge www is being used.

[raisedadead]

Yes, we should allow www. to be acceptable in this challenge as well as in the next if its not the case.

@KonSal I agree in the next challenge we should remove the www (for consistency) from the seed (editor) code.

Any one up for fixing these?

@BerkeleyTrue you might want to enable Cloudflare SSL on this domain as well

@raisedadead I could do it when I get back home. Seems suitable for a first timer like me to make his first commit.
