Tell us what’s happening:
I completed the checkbox form section, after 3 hours of trying to distinguish the differences between the id and name attribute (I was successful btw). The issue I am running into now is that all three check boxes work properly when clicking on the boxes themselves, but the form behavior is inconsistent when I click the labels of the check boxes. Checkbox one checks when I click its text label, but checkbox two and three also check box one, without checking themselves.
I am confused about this because the exercise says my code is correct.
PS. If posting topics as I have questions rather than just asking on a previous thread that I’ve posted is improper, let me know.
Thanks.
