The 'Bummer' message told me what was wrong and I fixed it but it still says it is wrong

Code not working

form.html 
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
    <title>Ye Olde Ice Cream Shoppe</title>
</head>
<body>

    <p>Your order has been created. What flavor of ice cream would you like to add to it?</p>

    <form action="process.php" method="POST">

        <label for="flavor">Flavor</label>
        <select id="flavor" name="flavor">
            <option value="">&#8212; Select &#8212;</option>
            <option value="Vanilla">Vanilla</option>
            <option value="Chocolate">Chocolate</option>

I think this is a case of the challenge engine being really picky. method="POST" was considered invalid in xhtml, as all attributes had to be lowercase to pass validation. If you go through this with method="post" instead, it should work.
