I cannot complete this lesson. Even with people giving the answer and I retype it in. It still comes up with an error. Can someone please post what the answer is and where it is located in the entire code?

Thanks

Hi @ToddPhil !

Welcome to the forum!

The issue is that you have misunderstood the directions here
Nest the existing input element inside a form element

This is the existing input.

Instead, you created a new input here which is incorrect

Also the action attribute is incorrect here

The directions say this
and assign "https://www.freecatphotoapp.com/submit-cat-photo" to the action attribute of the form element.

I would reset the lesson.
Wrap your form tags around the existing input. Don’t not create a new input.

</ol>
OPENING FORM TAG GOES HERE
<input type="text" placeholder="cat photo URL">
CLOSING FORM TAG GOES HERE
</main>

Make sure to use the correct url I showed you from the instructions for the action attribute.

Hope that helps!
