Stuck on this question :-(

[leojilka]

Tell us what’s happening:

Hi all, Im trying my best to figure this out but having no luck I think the question contradicts it self by asking “Your first radio button on your form should be checked by default.”…than stating " You should not change the inner text of the Indoor label."

I have tried everything but nothing has worked.

I’ve reset my code

  **Your code so far**

you should give the first radio button and first checkbox a checked attribute without any value

Hi @ leojilka

I think the terminology might be confusing you.

The “inner text” of the first radio button is the word " Indoor" - the text that displays on your web page.

The instructions are just asking you to add the checked attribute inside the input tag, as shown in the example.

<input type="radio" name="test-name" checked>

[leojilka]

This is so confusing. The end goals are as follows :

Your first radio button on your form should be checked by default.
Your first checkbox on your form should be checked by default.
You should not change the inner text of the Indoor label.
You should not change the inner text of the Loving label.

I cracked it I had to remove something and it worked.
