HTML HTML Forms Form Basics Create a Textarea

For the 2nd question, i believe this is how you create a text input however it keeps telling me i am wrong.

I believe this is how you create a text input however it keeps telling me i am wrong. What am i missing?

index.html
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head>
    <meta charset="utf-8">
    <title>HTML Forms</title>
  </head>
  <body>
    <table>
      <form action='index.html' method='post'>
        <input type='text' id='name' name='user_name'>



      </form>
    </table>
  </body>
</html>

That should be correct. I've even tested it by copy pasting your exact code (all of it) into the challenge, and I passed.

Thanks for the clarification, I really appreciate the help. Any idea how I can skip the question and move on with the course?

Hi Arsal Abdullah,

There is nothing incorrect about the way you’ve created your text input. The issue is the table element that you’ve created.

Including a table element was not a part of the first part of the challenge. And as such, it’s throwing the testing of the text input off. Once you remove the table tags, you’ll find that your code passes.
