You have two inputs one of them is inside the main tag and the other is outside of the main tag. Get rid of the input that is outside your tag

Also get rid of the white space between the quotes and your text. And make sure that you follow their capitalization of what the cat photo text should be

You were tasked with adding placeholder text to the existing input element, not with creating a new one.
On a side note, you’d want your input element inside the form element.

you dont need to make a new input, you just need to put a placeholder at the existing input in the form, and make sure to type it correctly

Thank you so much. Makes sense. I created another one instead of using the current input

Glad you got it working, and understand it. Keep going strong.
