Tell us what’s happening:
I just cant figure out where the ‘name’ attribute is supposed to go? It said the inputs, however, I have tried putting it in all of the inputs, all of the labels, fieldsets, and textareas.

Your code so far

<!-- file: index.html -->

  <head>
    <meta charset="UTF-8">

  <body>
    <h1>Registration Form</h1>

You’ve already added name attributes to the radio button inputs. Use that as an example of how to add name attributes to the other inputs.

Labels and fieldsets are not submittable inputs.

3

So would I change the name from “first-name” on the first name bar to something else? I might be misreading your reply as I am still new.

No, you don’t need to change the value of the name attribute on the first input. That’s just fine. What you need to do is make sure all submittable elements on the page have a name attribute. For example, in your HTML above, does the upload profile picture input have a name attribute?

I managed to get it, Thank you very much!
I was so confused and felt like a moron but I just wasn’t listening to it :joy:
