    Here is a test

    Your code has many errors here are some I can spot right away:

    - header tag has to be head
    - title tag has to be in the head tag
    - close and open all paragraphs correctly <p></p>
    - all attributes need an "is equal" symbol example name="top"
    Something like this to remove the errors:

    Code:
    <html>
    <head>
     <title>my title text</title>
    </head>
    <body>
    <p><strong><a name="top">FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS</a></strong></p> <p>&nbsp;</p>
