Choosing Options/Create Checkbox Challenge/Challenge task 3 of 3

Challenge task 3 of 3 Add labels for the two checkboxes that say "Fast Shipping" and "Subscribe to Newsletter". Then add line breaks after the labels. Challenge task 3 of 3 gives me this response: Bummer! You need to add a <label> element with its "for" attribute set to "shipping" within the <form> element. The 'review yields the desired result...here is my code block:

        ```<input type="checkbox" id="shipping" value="fast_shipping">
  <label class="light" for  shipping>Fast Shipping</label><br>
  <input type="checkbox" id="newsletter" value="subscribe">
  <label class="light" for  newsletter>Subscribe to Newsletter</label><br>

    ```

This code passes...I wasn't sure if the class type was necessary: <input type="checkbox" id="shipping" value="fast_shipping"> <label for = shipping>Fast Shipping</label><br> <input type="checkbox" id="newsletter" value="subscribe"> <label for = newsletter>Subscribe to Newsletter</label><br>

You need to use ="" to select the id you want to set your label to by using the for attribute before the class attribute. Try this...

  <input type="checkbox" id="shipping" value="fast_shipping"><label for="shipping" class="light">Fast Shipping</label><br>


  <input type="checkbox" id="newsletter" value="subscribe"><label for="newsletter" class="light">Subscribe to Newsletter</label><br>
