Learn HTML by Building a Cat Photo App - Step 14

Question 14 says: " Step 14

Add a target attribute with the value _blank to the anchor (a) element’s opening tag, so that the link opens in a new tab."

But I don’t even know where to insert “_blank”. It doesn’t provide an example.

I don’t even understand what they mean by target.

Please help.

My code so far

<html>
  <body>
    <main>
      <h1>CatPhotoApp</h1>
      <h2>Cat Photos</h2>
      <!-- TODO: Add link to cat photos -->
      <p>See more <a  href="https://freecatphotoapp.com">cat photos </a> in our gallery.</p>

Welcome to the community @cherieflxmes !

Thank you for including both the code and the problem!

If you notice how the href attribute and its value "https://freecatphotoapp.com" have been added to the anchor, this is the same way to add the target attribute and its value "_blank"
I suggest adding it behind the a and before the href, leaving a space before and after the entered code.
Example:
<a attribute="value" href="value>text</a>

I hope this helps you!

Hi,

Thank you for your quick and welcoming response.

I put: Spoiler alert

See more

<a target="_blank" 
href="https://freecatphotoapp.com"

and was able to submit it. So, thanks for your help.

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 (').
