My Label elements already have closing tags

HTML-CSS
1

Tell us what’s happening:
I essentially added the Input elements correctly in the proper format and for some reason when I ran the check, it told me that my label needs a closing tag. But I looked at it and I see that I already have closing tags on both indoor and outdoor formats.
Your code so far


Indoor


Outdoor

Hi there. What exactly do all of the failing tests say?

3

It says " Each of your label elements should have a closing tag."

4 
<label for="indoor"> 
  <input id="indoor" type="radio" name="indoor-outdoor">Indoor 
</label>

I’m over here trying to play spot the difference between yours and the example and not seeing it quite yet.

These quotes look different from the others :grinning:

Which is really odd in my opinion, I keep running the test and it tells me the same thing

7

Ah ha! Well spotted!

I’m still not understanding unfortunately :S

Those quotes are not the standard quotes here “”
Use the standard quotes “” and the test will pass.
You use them everywhere in your code except here

10

Oh dear, I still see no way of fixing it. deleted it and re-inputted the same quotes and it still says each label element should have a closing tag :frowning:

11

That’s weird because you wrote with the correct quotes here
type="radio" name="indoor-outdoor">

It was just this one that was wrong.

What device are you using?

12

I’m currently using a MacBook Pro

Yep. Apple sometimes refuses to let you choose your punctuation. There should be a setting for you to turn off ‘smart punctuation’ somewhere.

You can also copy-paste the correct quotes in place of the bad ones.

I tried copying and pasting and it still doesn’t work. If I “reset all code” would that reset just that one lesson i’m doing? or would it reset the whole course?

15

Resetting applies only to the current challenge.

I reset the current challenge and redid it, and even disabled the ‘smart punctuation’ and it worked!! thank you for your help :smiley:
