Why it said "footer tag should have an id attribute set to “footer”.???

Because your footer tag should have an id attribute set to footer and it currently does not.

3 
<footer id="footer">Copyright Cat Photo App</footer>

Follow the instruction below “Ask for Help”.
You don’t want the Jump to Bottom as an id attribute.
The challenge is asking you to program in a way that when you press the Jump to Bottom it will redirect to footer which should a different attribute other than “Jump to Bottom”
When you put Jump to Bottom as id attribute, there’ll be two “Jump to Bottom”; top and bottom which doesn’t make sense

4

your h2 element should not have id footer

5

the challenge here is the footer. Hence, footer id
"footer tag should have an id attribute set to “footer”.
Hope this helps

6

can you repost your current code

7

<footer id="footer">Copyright Cat Photo App</footer>
this is the answer for the current question

8

Ya but if you still have the h2 element like this

<h2 id="footer">Jump to Bottom</h2>

then you have 2 elements with the same id and id’s are suppose to be unique

9

Change your external link to an internal link by changing the href attribute to “#footer” and the text from “cat photos” to “Jump to Bottom”.

Remove the target="_blank" attribute from the anchor tag since this causes the linked document to open in a new window tab.

Then add an id attribute with a value of “footer” to the element at the bottom of the page.

This is the original question from that challenge.
Yes, you are right. id’s are suppose to be unique. in this question, it is not asking for h2 element but footer.
But if they ask h2, then the answer should be yours.
