Confused w/ this lables challenge.

The task: Create a label with a for attribute that matches the input element's ID. Between the label tags, write the text "Name:".

This is what it's telling me after I enter in my HTML for the <lable> element.

Bummer! You need to add a <label> element before the <input> element.

index.html 
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head>
    <meta charset="utf-8">
    <title>HTML Forms</title>
  </head>
  <body>

    <form action="index.html" method="post">  
      <label for="name">Name:</label>
      <input type="text" id="name" name="user_name">
      <textarea id="comment" name="user_comment"></textarea>
      <button type="submit">Submit Comment</button>
    </form>

  </body>
</html>

Hi Jeremy,

You wrote misspelling for lable, which should be **label

      <lable for="name">Name:</lable>

      <label for="name">Name:</label>

Hope that helps.
