I need help with challenge number two.

This is my code so far. 

<!DOCTYPE html>

    <p>Your order has been created. What flavor of ice cream would you like to add to it?</p>

   <form action="process.php" method="POST">

        <label for="flavor">Flavor</label>
        <select id="flavor" name="flavor">
            <option value="">&#8212; Select &#8212;</option>

Hi Domnick,

Your code looks good, but the challenge will only accept a lowercase method value. Recently, someone else had a similar problem and the answer mentioned that back in the day xhtml would not validate if the value was not all lowercase.
