Did you have a question? It doesnt look like you have attempted the challenge yet. If you are not sure how to add the value attribute you can look at the code thats already in the challenge

 <input type="submit" value="Submit" />

Also, I am not sure why but you have replaced all your css with the html for the challenge.

Tell us what’s happening:
Describe your issue in detail here.

Submitting the form with an option selected would not send a useful value to the server. As such, each attribute. Without which, the text content of the option needs to be given a value will be submitted to the server.option, and the subsequent Give the first option a value of ""option elements value attributes from 1 to 4.

Challenge: Learn HTML Forms by Building a Registration Form - Step 36

Link to the challenge:

similar to creating a class attribute, you are being asked to create a value attribute for each option … the first option is “” and the following options are 1,2,3 and 4 respectively…

the server will now receive the value (1,2,3 or 4) of whichever option the user selected. If these values weren’t attributed the the actual text of the option would be sent to the server to process.

Did you look at my response to you?

This shows how you add the value attribute to an element. The value attribute needs to go inside your opening element tag. Also, I merged your two posts together. Please, do not create duplicate topics. If you still have questions about the challenge then you need to respond to those who are trying to help instead of making new topics.

thanks
