1,830 PointsStuck on Html forms again... please help.
What am I missing or doing wrong? I've tried writing the code in many different ways including the way we were shown to do it in workspaces during the lesson. Please help me so I can move on from this challenge task. Thanks.

element started on the previous line:
...<label for="shipping"><label>Fast Shipping</label><br>
Note that there are two start tags on the line, but only the inner one ends.

Your problem is in your checkbox lines. You have two opening <label>
tags for each line.
Cheers

Bummer: You need to add an <input> element with a type of "checkbox" and an id of "newsletter" within the <form> element.
