The code challenges don't seem to be working on the HTML Forms lesson.

There are 3 code challenges on the HTML Forms lesson but none of them are working. There are no instructions and you cannot complete the task without doing the challenges.

I just tried the first one, works fine... I just added this inside the 'body' tag:

<form>

</form>

If you've seen the video, you probably know the next challenge too. Else let me know!

If it still doesn't work, it might be a browser bug. Restart your browser and try again, or use another browser.

Good luck!

Very weird. No instruction and no Check Work button either. It was working fine last week. It seems to be a common problem though as I cannot complete any of the tasks for any of the lessons. strange. I'm just using regular Chrome/Firefox so no themes.

Maybe you can clear your browser cache. You'll have to relog ofcourse.

Hi Chris

Yeah that's what I inputted, but there is no submit button to complete the objective. Plus it says there are 3 objectives. If the first one is to enter: <form></form>, then what is the 2nd and 3rd objectives? I have tried it in Chrome and in Firefox and the problem persists! Hmmm.....

Hmm, that is weird indeed.

I've just completed this challenge without any effort and/or problems.

The challenge should have 3 tasks, after completing each task you press the "Check Work" button, if it is correct you move on to the next task. If the button is gone, maybe there is a small text line (using the alt text of the button) you can click on.

Otherwise it might be an add-on in Chrome or Firefox that is bugging it. Are you using a different theme?
