Task one, passed okay $(email).addClass("valid");

In jQuery remove the class of 'error' from the input with the id of 'name' Why not then Task Two? $(name).removeClass("error");

Task one shouldn't have passed as the query for the input with id of 'email' would be this:

$('#email').addClass('valid');

Likewise, you'd need to include the hash tag for the input with id of 'name' for the second task.

Hi Ian, I remain blocked on the task one ! I have watched 3 times the video and I am still blocked ! I entered the code above but it didn't work. How can I get help ? It is probably a silly mistake somewhere !

Ian, I want to thank you for your help recently. I have realized that I need a little more knowledge than the little videos give. So, I'm going to pivot into some other classes for a while. Word Press looks interesting and I bought the Ethan Marcotte book and the Luke Wroblewski book. So, I hope to go a little deeper and wider.

Then confident, I'll circle back and attack them GD strings.

Ian is right. "Likewise, you'd need to include the hash tag for the input with id of 'name' for the second task."

You forgot one little thing. The # should be there to represent a ID.

The correct code is

$("#name").removeClass("error");
