Confused about Check Radio Buttons and Checkboxes by Default

[itsamee]

Hello, I am new to programming and I get confused very easily, I am not sure what is happening, in the challenge I am asked to set the first of your radio buttons and the first of your checkboxes to both be checked by default with the requirements of

• Your first radio button on your form should be checked by default.
• Your first checkbox on your form should be checked by default.
• You should not change the inner text of the Indoor label.
• You should not change the inner text of the Loving label.

The last two I am not complying with and I have not touched those internal texts or at least I think so, I hope your help, thank you very much

   **Your code so far**

Challenge: Check Radio Buttons and Checkboxes by Default

You changed several things about the labels and the inputs that you shouldn’t have.
For example, the original code in the challenge for the first form item is:

<label for="indoor"><input id="indoor" type="radio" name="indoor-outdoor" value="indoor"> Indoor</label>

but you changed it to:

 <label><input type="radio" name="indoor-outdoor"> Indoor</label>

You have also added a random additional radio button at the beginning of the form, which doesn’t belong there.

You have the right Idea, and this Question is a little Tricky, and so it is an Easy one to get confused on:

Go ahead and hit the RESET BUTTON. As Ariel said, there are a few pieces of code that are out of place. Sometimes, it’s a good idea to use the RESET BUTTON to reset the code if you are having continuous problems, and can’t figure out why.

THE TUTORIAL SAYS TO: Set the first of your radio buttons and the first of your checkboxes to both be checked by default.

This is the first radio button:

This is the first checkbox:

This is what it looks like to have both of them checked
