Survey Form - Build a Survey Form

Tell us what’s happening: I’m getting the following errors :

“You should have a select field with an id of dropdown

" Your #dropdown should be a descendant of #survey-form"

" You should have at least two radio buttons that are descendants of #survey-form ."

" You should have at least two input elements with a type of checkbox (checkboxes) that are descendants of #survey-form ."

As you all can see, it is pretty much due the same issue, being a descendant of survey-form.

Your code so far

There are a few corrections and improvements that can be made to the HTML code:

  1. Closing tags for <input> elements should end with > instead of />.
  2. The closing </submit> tag should be </button>.
  3. The closing </fieldset> tags are missing for some fieldsets.
  4. The id attribute should be unique for each element, but there are duplicates like id="dropdown".
  5. The for attribute in <label> tags should match the corresponding input element’s id.
  6. There are missing closing </label> tags for some checkboxes.
  7. The <label> tags for checkboxes are not properly nested within each other.

Here’s the corrected HTML:

<fieldset>
  <form id="survey-form">
    <label for="name" id="name-label">Name
      <input type="text" id="name" placeholder="Enter your full name" required>

I did the corrections, and I still getting this errors:

“Your #dropdown should be a descendant of #survey-form .”

" You should have at least two radio buttons that are descendants of #survey-form ."

" You should have at least two input elements with a type of checkbox (checkboxes) that are descendants of #survey-form ."

  • All your checkboxes inside #survey-form should have a value attribute and value.

  • Failed:You should have at least one textarea element that is a descendant of #survey-form.

Your #submit should be a descendant of #survey-form .

Changes made:

  • Added name attributes to form elements to ensure they are submitted properly.
  • Modified the checkbox name attribute to improvement[] to allow multiple selections to be submitted as an array.
  • Added a name attribute to the radio buttons to ensure only one option is selected and submitted.
  • Added a name attribute to the textarea for submitting comments.

@Rainier

I provided you modified code, but you need to do it yourself. Copy paste is not a good idea for learning. I suggest you to start practicing from previous project.
@Rainier

Hey Hasan, I did the corrections you pointed out, and I still was having the same errors, luckily, i was able to find out the solution, I added the form element to every “block” of the form, not sure if I m being clear enough.

Thanks for your help.
