Use an id Attribute to Style an Element Challenge

HTML-CSS
1

Tell us what’s happening:

I don’t understand what I’m doing wrong, I’ve tried everything, watch the video, read all the articles I found in here but I am stuck. It says ‘make sure your form element has an id attribute’

PLEASE HELP

Your code so far


<link href="https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Lobster" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css">
<style>
  #cat-photo-form {
    background-color: green
  }
  .red-text {
    color: red;
  }

  h2 {
    font-family: Lobster, monospace;
  }

  p {
    font-size: 16px;
    font-family: monospace;
  }

  .thick-green-border {
    border-color: green;
    border-width: 10px;

Have you tried deleting #cat-photo-form from the form tag? So it should just read:
<form action="/submit-cat-photo" id="cat-photo-form"> Instead of:
<form #cat-photo-form action="/submit-cat-photo" id="cat-photo-form">
