Challenge: Create a Form Element

Link to the challenge:

A nested element is a tag inside another tag, for example:

<ul>
  <li>cat nip</li>
  <li>laser pointers</li>
  <li>lasagna</li>
</ul>

The <li> elements are nested inside the <ul> tag

What the challenge is saying is you have to place the <input> tag inside a <form> tag, and also the <form> tag has the action property that you have to add.

I’ve edited your post for readability. When you enter a code block into a forum post, please precede it with a separate line of three backticks and follow it with a separate line of three backticks to make it easier to read.

You can also use the “preformatted text” tool in the editor (</>) to add backticks around text.

See this post to find the backtick on your keyboard.
Note: Backticks (`) are not single quotes (’).
