When you’re trying to format code for the forum, all you have to do is paste it into the reply box and then highlight all your code and click the little </> button in the little tool bar of the text window. It’s between the the quotes and the upload button.

Or you can highlight it and hit Ctrl+Shift+C

Ah I see what’s happening.

With html typically every tag has an opening and a closing tag that has to be used every time you use that tag. So in your code, you’re missing the </div> on your top two <div class="row"> tags. You’ve got one on your third, that’s good, but you need them on the other two as well.

Ah we’re missing a little more here (I just checked out the exercise you’re doing).

I see it’s asking for two divs around each check box. Which means you’ll need two closing div tags for each. So like:

<div class="row"> <div class="col-xs-4"> <label><input type="checkbox" name="personality"> Loving</label> </div></div>

No problem! Just remember to bookend those tags. Even if you have three in a row, all three need to be closed and depending on the tag itself closed in order.
