Problem:

Step 36

The action attribute indicates where form data should be sent. For example, <form action="/submit-url"></form> tells the browser that the form data should be sent to the path /submit-url.

Add an action attribute with the value https://freecatphotoapp.com/submit-cat-photo to the form element.

I am trying various placements and usages of < form action > and placement of the link in “/submit-url” but I cannot figure out the syntax of this. It is not clear in the instructions on the exact placement of this code. Any help appreciated. Thanks.

I’m stucked at the same step (sorry for my english, it’s not my native language)

This is what I had to do

Step 36

The action attribute indicates where form data should be sent. For example, <form action="/submit-url"></form> tells the browser that the form data should be sent to the path /submit-url.

Add an action attribute with the value https://freecatphotoapp.com/submit-cat-photo to the form element.

This is what I wrote :

And this is the comment I have

      <li>other cats</li>
    </ol>

    </figure>
  </section>
  <section>
    <h2>Cat Form</h2>

Sorry, your code does not pass. Don’t give up.

Your form element does not have an action attribute. Check that there is a space after the opening tag’s name and/or there are spaces before all attribute names.
