I’ve edited your code 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 (').

You definitely don’t want to nest back ticks inside of back ticks. You have single quotes or double quotes to choose from instead.

This doesn’t look like the proper value the instructions are asking you to add for the for attribute. Remember, everything inside of the curly braces is evaluated as an expression. Are you sure that entryDropdown.value-entryNumber-name is a valid expression?

I would look at the hint very closely. It is telling you exactly what to use for the value of the for attribute.
