Tell us what’s happening:
I finished the exercise, run the test and it is right.

I just don’t see any difference or action in the web page. I don’t understand the purpose of the exercise if I don’t see it.

This time the help option has no video, which helped in the past.

Yup, it’s kind of a boring lesson that doesn’t seem to do something. It just checks that you know where to put the form action. If you enter data into the form and hit enter, it will “do” that action. It’s not very clear from the instructions and not very interesting. It will do more interesting things later.
