Hi Torian, your code is good just a little syntax error in your conditional statement inside the 'for' loop of your 'filterCheckBox' event listener.

 if(li.className === 'responded') {
        li.syle.display = ''; //you mispelled the word 'style'
      }else {
        li.style.display = 'none';
      }

All you need do is spell it out correctly.

  if(li.className === 'responded') {
        li.style.display = '';
      }else {
        li.style.display = 'none';
      }

Did you have a problem with the the header image breaking up, after you use the filter checkbox? I finally cut and pasted the code from the project files, and it still happens, so it's either Treehouses editor, or something in the CSS maybe not being supported? Maybe flexbox?
