Looks like you forgot the ending </button> tag. You also forgot to add the closing quotes on the button type <button type="Submit">This is a submit button</button>

Do you have the button text as Submit? That is required to pass the tests.

The button in the context of a form. The ‘submit’ button for a form.

When the ‘submit’ button is actually clicked in the HTML document in the browser by the users mouse cursor, it sends the collected ‘form’ data from the text ‘input’ fields - the’ email’ and ‘password’ - to a web server. On the web server is a predefined (programmed by the coder beforehand) database that has a predefined table with rows. The rows each have a field for a data type (i,e,. integer, varchar, Boolean, etc.,) which holds a value. The values in my example are ‘email’ and ‘password’. Both text entries. When your form asks for a ‘email’ and a ‘password’; the table has a place to store and hold these values for recall later. There are several ways to build out the ‘button’ element. Below the ‘button’ element is outside the ‘form’ element but is connected by the ‘form’ attribute in the button element. For the button element => [ form =“myForm” ]. For the form element => [ id=“myForm” ] The “myForm” value links in the form element to the button element.

<form  action="login.php" method="POST"  id="myForm"   >
        <input  type="email"  placeholder="Enter your email"  name="email" >
        <input  type="password"   placeholder="and password"  name="password" >
        <input type="submit">
    </form>

<button  type="submit"   form="myForm"   value="Submit">Submit</button>

If you are still having trouble passing this challenge, please post your most recent code into a reply. To enter a code block into the forum, precede it with a line of three backticks and follow it with a line of three backticks to make easier to read. See this post to find the backtick on your keyboard. The “preformatted text” tool in the editor (</>) will also add backticks around text.
