Hello! Welcome to the community :partying_face:!

The lesson states that you must set the placeholder attribute with a value of cat photo URL:

Set the placeholder value of your text input to “cat photo URL”.

Remember that an attribute, like the placeholder, must not go between quotes (single nor double) but its values must go between quotes (that value is what’s after the equals sign).

Hope it helps :slight_smile:!

Happy coding!

Many thanks, Nicolas.
I am very new in this whole thing but I am determined to work and pull through. I should deploy your advise when I resume the lessons later today.
Edmund.

No, I haven’t cracked it. I have set the value of the placeholder attribute yet.

Hello Nics,
How do I resolve this:: Each of your radio button elements should be added within the form tag.
This is where I got stuck.
Thanks.
