Your code so far

<!-- file: index.html -->
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
  <head>
    <meta charset="UTF-8">
    <title>Registration Form</title>
    <link rel="stylesheet" href="styles.css" />
  </head>
  <body>
    <h1>Registration Form</h1>
    <p>Please fill out this form with the required information</p>
    <form method="post" action='https://register-demo.freecodecamp.org'>

<!-- User Editable Region -->

      <fieldset>
        <label for="first-name">Enter Your First Name: <input id="first-name" type="text"/></label>
        <label for="last-name">Enter Your Last Name: <input id="last-name" type="text" /></label>
        <label for="email">Enter Your Email: <input id="email" type="email" /></label>
        <label for="new-password">Create a New Password: <input id="new-password" type="password" /></label>
      </fieldset>
      <fieldset></fieldset>
      <fieldset></fieldset>
      <input type="submit"></input>

<!-- This is what the prompt is saying & I'm confused & frustrated-->

The first input element with a type of submit is automatically set to submit its nearest parent form element.

To handle the form submission, after the last fieldset element add an input element with the type attribute set to submit and the value attribute set to Submit.

<!--My complaint-->

The 1st input element I put has type="text". Why is the prompt saying "The 1st  input element with a type of submit" if there's no submit value in my 1st input element. It never told me to put that.  2nd, it says after the LAST fieldset put an input with the following attributes & values (  type="submit"  value="submit" ). I did just that, why on earth is it not letting me pass. This prompt isn't clear enough & I'm honestly right now

Welcome to the forum @Milkbelly17

The instructions are clear and concise.

They are asking you to add a value attribute to pass the test.

The confusing part is that when you add a type attribute, the button automatically displays that name.

Happy coding
