Get video posted to internet for chasing red dot leave fur on owners clothes meow to be let out and mesmerizing birds leave fur on owners clothes or favor packaging over toy so purr for no reason. Meow to be let out play time intently sniff hand run outside as soon as door open yet destroy couch.</p>

The footer tag should have an id attribute set to “footer”.

Your footer tag does not have it’s id attribute set, so it is failing the test.

You added an anchor tag up top with the text inside ‘jump to bottom’, so naturally we want the link to take us to the bottom of the page when it gets pressed. You can link and instantly scroll to different parts of your page by accessing their id. Just like in CSS and JS you prefix the id attribute with a # to access it, so if you put a link on a page to a #footer it will be searching for any element on the page with the id of footer. In your case, it does not exist, so it does not scroll down as intended.

Hope this clarifies some for you.

There was actually a very similar thread about this exact challenge the other day that I believe you would benefit from.

In summary, The <footer> tag is not the same thing as id="footer". The names just so happen to be the same, but that’s irrelevant.
