4,960 Pointswhy does it always say that I have to add the <button> tag into the <form> tag and when I try it I get another error?
Its in html forms. the 2nd to last question of the challenge. I'm supposed to create this button after textarea and i did that. I put exactly the same thing as the guy in the video did but it always marks it as wrong. I just put the button tag, then the text and then I closed it. Like this <button>Submit Comment</button> That was what they asked and I don't understand why it won't recognize that. Guess I have to switch browsers again. That shouldn't happen here. I pay good money every month so I expect things to work

<button type="submit">Submit Comment</button>
This just tells the web page that the button you are using is going to perform a submit action when clicked.
Hope this helps buddy.

6,697 PointsCan you print your code that you are entering for me. just wrap your code in 3 backsticks (the key on your keyboard under the esc key), refer to the markdown cheatsheet, its more than likely something very simple I have had problems like this before.
once I can see the exact code you are putting I may be able to help.
