Learn HTML by Building a Cat Photo App - Step 38

Tell us what’s happening:
Okay what I am confused about is that I am told that

“Your form element should only contain the input element. Remove any extra HTML elements or text between the form element’s tags.”

Perhaps I put the code in the wrong notation, nonetheless some guidance would be greatly appreciated.

Your code so far

<html>
  <body>
    <main>
      <h1>CatPhotoApp</h1>

Challenge: Learn HTML by Building a Cat Photo App - Step 38

Link to the challenge:

the instructions said:

adding the type attribute with the value text to the input element.

So you need to add a type attribute to the input element.
(you seem to have create a new anchor element instead?)

Oh I see, so “a” is an anchor not a attribute!

Here is my code now.
<type=“text”>

Yeah element a is an anchor.

Attributes are like the href attribute and the src attribute.
They go inside the opening tag of an element.

You want to try this one again? (you still are not adding the type as an attribute to the input element)
