Tell us what’s happening:

I don’t understand where the value attribute is supposed to be, and what does it even do?

set the button’s value attribute to the same value as its id attribute.

value=

You’ve done it correctly, but you need to give them a value, just as you give a value to the other attributes. It’s a little confusing since this attribute is called “value” but it just means you need to enter a value just as you do for id

id="indoor"
3

Do i enter Value = “id”?

nvm, i figured it out. Thanks for the help.

Maybe this is more clear:

<attribute> = <value>
id = "indoor"
type="radio" 
name="indoor-outdoor"
value=

The first part is the attribute and it’s assigned a value. The value attribute needs to have the same value as the id attribute.
