need help for this code challenge!

Unfortunately i m getting the red error for that challenge.

Here is the question: (Add labels for two checkboxes that say "Fast Shipping" and "Subscribe to Newsletter". Then add line breaks after the labels.)

Below you'll see my code, the two lines of code just above the button tag!

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head>
    <meta charset="utf-8">
    <title>HTML Forms</title>
  </head>
  <body>
    <form action="index.html" method="post">
      <h1>Shirt Order Form</h1>
      <label for="color">Shirt Color:</label>
      <select id="color" name="shirt_color">
        <option value="red">Red</option>
        <option value="yellow">Yellow</option>
        <option value="purple">Purple</option>
        <option value="blue">Blue</option>
        <option value="green">Green</option>
        <option value="orange">Orange</option>
      </select>
      <label>Shirt Size:</label>
      <input type="radio" id="small" value="small" name="shirt_size"><label for="small">Small</label><br>
      <input type="radio" id="medium" value="medium" name="shirt_size"><label for="medium">Medium</label><br>
      <input type="radio" id="large" value="large" name="shirt_size"><label for="large">Large</label><br>
      <input type="checkbox" id="shipping" value="fast_shipping"><label for="fast shipping">Fast Shipping</label><br>
      <input type="checkbox" id="newsletter" value="subscribe"><label for="subscribe to newsletter">Subscribe to Newsletter</label><br>



      <button type="submit">Place Order</button>
    </form>
  </body>
</html>

Hi Mirko,

It's likely that you just need to put the labels + line break before their respective checkboxes. That way they'll appear on top of the checkbox they're associated with.

Like so:

<label for="fast shipping">Fast Shipping</label><br>
<input type="checkbox" id="shipping" value="fast_shipping">
<label for="subscribe to newsletter">Subscribe to Newsletter</label><br>
<input type="checkbox" id="newsletter" value="subscribe">

Hope that helps,

Ede
