Hello @adeboluwatife1

I don’t seem to understand how to add the id attribute. tried many variations, any help please

Add it to the opening input tag. You have already another example there with type="radio"

I still didn’t get it :smiling_face_with_tear:

It is alright. Maybe the terminology is not making sense, yet. Here’s some terminology.

+--------------- Element -------------+
|                                     |
+--- Start tag --+         End tag +--+
|                |                 |  |
<p class="saying">live and let live</p>
   |    ||       ||                |
   |    ||       |+-----Content----+
   |    |+-------+
   |    |Attribute
   +----+  Value
 Attribute
    Name

Originally you had:

<label><input type="radio"> Indoor</label>

Looking at the diagram you will be able to identify an attribute and the request is asking you to create an attribute in the form of id="indoor". Also looking at the diagram you’ll see that attributes are always placed in the starting tag of an element. You need to place it inside input
