Build a Checkout Page - Issues with P Element and Card Number Input

HTML-CSS
1

Tell us what’s happening:

I’m getting 2 errors. One is that I should have a p element with an id attribute of “card-number-help” immediately after the card number input element. The second is that my card number input should have an aria-describedby attribute set to “card-number-help” To me, it looks as though I’ve done this correctly and ChatGPT couldn’t find the issue either. I tried to copy and paste the card-number-help text directly from the instructions and that didn’t work either.

Your code so far

Welcome to the forum @kathrynchill

Review how you associate label and input elements.

Happy coding

oh my gosh - thank you!! I guess I overthought the label elements - I removed all attributes except for the for attribute for my card-number label specifically and it worked!
