Sorry, your code does not pass. Try again.

Hint

You should place the text before the select element.

Why did you add a space before “How…”?

as kevinSmith says, in this type of test be sure that the text you introduce is EXACTLY equal to the required, otherwise the test will fail even if your code is right

first of all thank you for the help!
i know in some cases they ask me to add space before the word, but in some i see that it’s must be whitout, maybe can you explein in witch cases it’s must be and in witch it’s don’t?

Adding whitespace in between elements usually has no effect. You have to be careful adding in spaces in text though, that can affect what shows on the screen. In this case it doesn’t seem to affect the screen but the test may not be able to account for it - you can’t write a test that will account for everything.

Notice that it affects what is in the DOM:
Screen Shot 2022-06-28 at 3.51.15 PM

Screen Shot 2022-06-28 at 3.51.36 PM

Again, it doesn’t seem to affect what is on the screen in this case, but it all depends on how the test is written. It was just the first thing that I noticed when I looked at it, a space for no particular reason.
