70,280 PointsThe instructions don't say it, but the label needs a for
attribute that connects to the id of the select
element. Take a look at how this example is structured as a reference:
<label for="cars">Choose a car:</label>
<select name="cars" id="cars">
<option value="volvo">Volvo</option>
<option value="saab">Saab</option>
<option value="mercedes">Mercedes</option>
<option value="audi">Audi</option>
</select>
Let me know if this helps!
