The code that you show is the starting code for the challenge.
You have not entered the required field into the input element.
EDIT: I edited your code to show what you have in the “Describe your issue in detail here.”
When that is entered your code passes correctly for me.
The code you have shared works on my end. Please ensure that you have disabled any extensions that interface with the freeCodeCamp website (such as Dark Mode and Ad Blocker), and set your browser zoom level to 100%. Both of these factors can cause tests to fail erroneously.
Your welcome. Couple of additional things so if you have future questions it will be easier to provide help.
