Instead of creating a second form element, just add the id attribute to the existing form element. I also suspect that you don’t have the id exactly correct.

inside the form which i create or i create new form

There is already a form. You are not supposed to create a second one.

<form  id="cat-photo-app" action="/submit-cat-photo" method="post">
  <label><input type="radio" name="indoor-outdoor" checked> Indoor</label>
  <label><input type="radio" name="indoor-outdoor"> Outdoor</label>
  <label><input type="checkbox" name="personality" checked> Loving</label>
  <label><input type="checkbox" name="personality"> Lazy</label>
  <label><input type="checkbox" name="personality"> Energetic</label>
  <input type="text" placeholder="cat photo URL" required>
  <button type="submit">Submit</button>
</form>

When somebody clicks the submit button the page will error out, though because it’s going to execute the “action”, which is currently “/submit-cat-photo”, which should be a script but is not, I assume.

The action is supposed to be there. At this level, FCC isn’t delving into the actual submit action, just showing campers what a form looks like.

Sorry…I was thinking this was a Pen and I was trying to head off the inevitable next question of “…but when I click submit…”
