2,872 PointsHi need help with this instruction in my HTML Forms lesson: 'Add a submit button with the text "Place Order".'
I've entered the button element as follows and feel it should work given I have nested it within the Form elements and the syntax is exactly like what i have in Workspaces - which works:
<button type="submit">Place Order</button>
Can you please share where I'm going wrong?
<!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>

You will need to close your </select> tag (element?) and it will work.
