Hi @nikky.princess

You have let HTMLSting = ``;, which isn’t needed as the variable was already declared using the const keyword.
Then you have another HTMLString variable.

Please remove the code not asked for in the instructions, then try again.
To be safe though, copy the the label element, looks great, then reset the step to restore the original code.

Happy coding

function addEntry() {
  const targetInputContainer = document.querySelector(`#${entryDropdown.value} .input-container`);
  const entryNumber = targetInputContainer.querySelectorAll('input[type="text"]').length;
  const HTMLString = ``;
  HTMLString = `<label>Entry ${entryNumber} Name</label>`;
}

still am getting this message in my console log “You should have a label element inside your template literal.
Your label element should have the text Entry ${entryNumber} Name.”

Hi @nikky.princess

Your code has two HTMLString variables.

Dont’ forget to declare the HTMLString with the const keyword.

Happy coding
