Learn Accessibility by Building a Quiz - Step 18

ok so I was able to get passed this point by putting (#) before the id but I don’t know why its required.

Can anyone explain why on this href there had to be a (#) and others in previous projects didn’t?

Your code so far

<!-- file: index.html -->

Link to the challenge:

You’re not linking to an external source. You are linking to something on the same page and referencing it by id. To do that you need the # in front.

Kind of like in a CSS style sheet when you select something by id you put the # in front.

concise and informative. thank you sir
