Make the first radio button and the first checkbox selected by default.

Additionally checked is a special attribute because it does not get a value.

You can read the instructions and you’ll figure it out I guess. I have one tip for you:

Don’t immediately ask people or google if you are stuck in a problem. Try figure it out first and you’ll get it. In the next 25 days at least, you’ll be able to solve your own problems in the end.

Good luck in the future, you’ll get it

I do not understand how to do this. Can you explain a bit more please.

Hi there!

The checked attribute didn’t a value. Also you need to add a checked attribute to your first input type checkbox loving.

change this: <input checked=“indoor” to:
<input checked id=“indoor”

try again
