You look to be adding more than the challenge requires. You should have something like this:
<!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>
Hope that helps :)
