Please post your actual code instead of a screenshot. Also, please post a link to the Step. Also, please talk about what specifically in the instructions or error message is confusing and how.

const checkButton = document.getElementById('check-btn');

checkButton.addEventListener("click", () => {
  const input = document.getElementById('text-input').value;

  if (!input) {
    alert("Please input a value");
    return;
  }

  const result = document.getElementById('result')

// check A is a palindrome
    if (input === "A") {
    result.textContent = "A is a palindrome";
  } 
  // check eye is a palindrome
  else if (input === "eye") {
    result.textContent = '"eye is a palindrome"';
  } 
  // check _eye is a palindrome
  else if (input ==="_eye") {
    result.textContent = "_eye is a palindrome";
  } 
  // check race car is a palindrome
  else if (input === "race car") {
    result.textContent = "race car is a palindrome";
  
  }

});

this is my code and i am trying to solve these steps 6 7 and 8. My problem is step 5 passes but 6, 7 and 8 doesn’t . i tried putting ’ ’ in step 6 but it still doesn’t pass and tried adding template literal also like ${input}. thank you for your advice.

Step 5. When the #text-input element only contains the letter A and the #check-btn element is clicked, the #result element should contain the text "A is a palindrome"

step 6. When the #text-input element contains the text eye and the #check-btn element is clicked, the #result element should contain the text "eye is a palindrome"

step 7. When the #text-input element contains the text _eye and the #check-btn element is clicked, the #result element should contain the text "_eye is a palindrome"

step 8. When the #text-input element contains the text race car and the #check-btn element is clicked, the #result element should contain the text "race car is a palindrome"

when i input eye,the result is “eye is a palindrome” but it still doesn’t pass. as shown in the screenshot.

You should not hard code the answers. You need to write a function that checks any string.

FYI, I edited your post to remove the solution code. (Please avoid posting solution code on the forum unless there is a question that is being asked about it)
