I'm stuck on question 7 - Set that text input to contain "Hello World". I'm sure I'm overlooking something obvious and basic but I keep trying things and they don't work.

You need to add the value attribute inside your input tag, and the value would be Hello World.

Many thanks. I had been overcomplicating things by adding other attributes as well...
