12,909 Pointsgetting syntax error when looping through items
The task wants you to loop through each item in options and create an <li> ins of the <ul> and print out the name key of each item. I feel like I am on the right track, but I don't know what's missing. Any help is appreciated!!
from flask import Flask, render_template
from options import OPTIONS
app = Flask(__name__)
@app.route('/')
def index():
return render_template('options.html', options=OPTIONS)
<ul>
{% for option in options %}
<li>{{ option }}</li>
{% endif %}
</ul>

: {% endfor %}
. Also, the challenge asks for the name
attribute to be displayed, not the option
itself, so use option.name
.
Good luck. Post back if you need more help.
