The prompt is "Add a form tag to your page." Now, there's a div that was created in the previous exercise, and I've added the form outside the div, inside the div...but it never passes. What am I supposed to do different here?

<form action="#" method="POST" name="my_form"></form>

Don't overthink these.

  • I couldn't get the angle brackets to show up, so replace the square brackets with angle brackets.

Yeah, I've tried that too. I think it's a bug. There's just some things that will not validate for me. I just skipped it and moved on. Thanks though!

Wesley Ellis - HTML tags won't show up properly in the forum as the browser will try to render them. Here are some tips on typing code into the forum

Thanks for the tip <a href="https://teamtreehouse.com/jamesbarnett" font-family="cursive">James Barnett</a>!

There might be a subtle bug here, I did notice it fail. But then I tried again with your code and it passed. So I can't reliably reproduce the issue.

Well, I get the gist. No worries. Thanks!
