An a start tag seen but an element of the same type was already open

Hey im getting three errors while trying to validate my project, they are 'An a start tag seen but an element of the same type was already open.' , 'End tag a violates nesting rules.' and 'Cannot recover after last error. Any further errors will be ignored.' The errors while validating point to the '>' in ''. Im new on html and cant figure out why this is happening. Any help would be greatly appreciated :)

<body> 

<a href="index.html"><img class = "banner" src="banner.jpg" alt="Image"/>


<nav>
 <a href="index.html">Home</a> | 
 <a href="product2.html">Products</a> | 
 <a href="about.html">About</a> 
</nav>

You're missing your closing anchor tag:

<a href="index.html"><img class = "banner" src="banner.jpg" alt="Image"/> <--HERE

Change it to:

<a href="index.html"><img class = "banner" src="banner.jpg" alt="Image"/></a>
