You have linked to step 40 of Build a Quiz Webpage but your code is different from the seed code.
If you reset the step, it is asking you to do 2 things:
- Link the label element and its corresponding textarea element.
- Add a name attribute to the text area element.
To do the first, you link in a similar way to how you have already linked inputs to its corresponding label such as this one:
<label for="q2-a1">
<input type="radio" id="q2-a1" name="q2" value="true" />
Work out from the above how to link the label to a corresponding input element and apply the same method do the textarea element. Textarea is a type of input element.

hi, is this topic closed or is my screen reader jaws not reading me the correct info. using google chrome. please let me know asap.
marvin.
hi, is this post closed. if so, maybe merge it or reopen it. have tried to get this to work. but totally stumped. help!
If it was closed then you would not be able to keep posting replies to it!
You seem to always have a problem with having code that does not match. You have been instructed to use the Reset button in the past in order to start the step again and be able to get the original seed code in place. Every step has a help button which will be shown when you have attempted the exercise three times, and every step has a reset button. (So if there was no help button there that means you ought to try the step a few more times).
Please spend more time reading through the responses you are receiving and try to absorb the information.
The last code you posted still does not match the seed code given for this step. Therefore, you will need to click Reset and attempt to follow the instructions in the step once more.
If you have a question about that, let us know.
hi, i did reset it. okay maybe try the editor and then try to then edit the code. not all pages have the help button, not on challenge 40. and totally blind and using a screen reader. so be gentle. if you cannot be civil, then maybe get some one else to help me out and have my code look the same as the challenge. have tried, and totally stumped.
need help.
