Hello,

I have finished my Survey Form project from the curriculum, but my submit button doesn’t appear on the page. And it comes out in red (missing) in the testing suite. I tried also, nothing changes. It’s at the end of the tag.

Here is my pen:

Thank you.

Hello!

It doesn’t show the button because you did not close your textarea box. textarea is not a self-closing tag. Close it, and your button will show up!

Hi!  
Close the textarea tag . Change the button type to “submit”.
