Adding a submit button..

I think my code is fine, but I keep getting rejected. It's telling me that I need to place a <button> within the <form> but my button is where it should be.

index.html 
<!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>
        <button type="submit">Place Order</button>

    </form>

  </body>
</html>

I noticed you are missing a closing select tag. Try adding that.
