Courses Plus Student 15,596 PointsHi Alex,
You must close your text area element first before you will be able to close the form. Please review this code and compare it with yours:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<title>HTML Forms</title>
</head>
<body>
<form action="index.html" method="post">
<input type="text" id="name" name="user_name">
<textarea id="comment" name="user_comment"></textarea>
<button type="submit">Submit Comment</button>
</form>
</body>
</html>
Also, there is no need to post 4 times the same question. You already got an answer from "Live Top" in a different post. You must be patient when getting an answer, it may take a few minutes and sometimes even more. This is not live chat.
In addition, make sure when asking a question you provide a little bit more info than "Help" as to what are you trying to do and what is the task is asking from you, this can lead to much much much faster answers.
Hope this helps. :)
