Challenge: Basic HTML and HTML5 - Create a Form Element

Link to the challenge:

2

First thing here is you are missing the ending > for your input, and the directions say to nest the “existing” input. Not create a new one, where is the unput that the challenge started you out with?

Next, the action link is not correct. Look at the link the challenge gives you to use, and look at what you are using

3

so now im just left with the input should be nested in the form element

4

You need to use the original input the challenge started you out with. In your original code it looks like you deleted it. I would reset the lesson to get it back

5

would reseting the lesson reset everything ive done till this challenge ?

6

It would reset only this challenge

Glad you got it working. Asking for help is just part of programming, and its better to ask when you first run into an issue instead of driving yourself crazy trying to figure it for a long period of time
