8,332 PointsIm not sure why this isn't working?
I keep getting this error message when i try to submit
Bummer! You need to add a <button> element inside the <form> element.
But, my <button> is inside form element?
<!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>

8,332 PointsI realize I should have just put <button> Submit Comment </button> and not have put the attributes yet. I tried that, inside the form tags and it still is giving me the same error message.
