Hi there! Step one requires that you do exactly as the instructions ask and no more. At this point, you've included a bunch of HTML which was never asked for. Also, you've modified the echo statements from the originals. Modifying the echo statements at this point will cause the challenge to fail.

My suggestion is to copy what you have into a text file and then go back and restart the challenge. Alter only what is asked for and when the challenge asks for it.

Hope this helps! :sparkles:
