I'm not sure if I'm missing something when I check my code or what

3,257 PointsHello Charles, I would say that it's because your label elements is incomplete. It should respect the following syntax : <label for="">Something</label> And inside the double quotes you refer to the id of the input or let it blank if want to let it unassigned.
Hope this helps, Cheers, Edouard

'''html <label for="">Shirt Size:</label> '''
