your input element is missing the closing >

if you need more help, please post your whole code

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 (’).

make your input element match again the one there was aat the beginning
the palceholder attribute is different

#11

Oh and can I ask u a question real quick because I can’t find the answer

#12

if you have a question about a different challenge you can use the Ask for Help button on that challenge

#13

No it’s about something else, the thing is that I’m also in my ethical hacking career and I wanna know if HTML is going to help or coding in general.

#14

HTML is the markup language to create web pages. if you are interested in web development, it’s a must. Also you need to know it if you ever want to inject some HTML in a webpage.

It doesn’t have much use other than webpages

#15

Ok thank you have a good day!!

#16

try to write palceholder=“cat phot URL” instead oh “url”

#17

Ye I fixed it the other day no worries thank you for helping though have a good day
