Treehouse Project ReviewerThe problem actually comes from the previous step. The textarea tag actually should have an opening and closing tag.
<form action="index.html" method="post">
<input type="text" id="name" name="user_name">
<textarea id="comment" name="user_comment"></textarea>
<button>Submit Comment</button>
</form>

Treehouse Project ReviewerThe challenge specifically said to not add any attributes to the button tag on this step. :-)
