Tell us what’s happening: I tried looking at the forum for this step and I have tried both
and \n both advise to start the variable with a new line

Your code so far

Start your HTMLString with a new line, then create a label element. Give that element the text Entry # Name , using your template literal syntax to replace # with the value of entryNumber .

function addEntry() {
const targetInputContainer = document.querySelector(#${entryDropdown.value} .input-container);
const entryNumber = targetInputContainer.querySelectorAll(‘input[type=“text”]’).length;
const HTMLString = \n<label>Entry ${entryNumber} Name</label>;
}

This is a known bug. You can’t use the \n escape character to add the new line. You must literally hit the Enter key to add the new line.
