"Submit Comment" button quiz problem - please help!

I have the following code but still get an error. The instructions are to create a button element and between the tags, write the text "Submit Comment" - no attributes yet. Please help me because I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong here.

<!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"> <button>Submit Comment</button> </form>

</body> </html>

You're nearly there, you just need to remember to close your textarea tag.

<textarea id="comment" name="user_comment"></textarea>
