There seems to be an error in your code.. the directions are to give the input element of type text the class of form-control There is no need to create a separate form to go around the button as both the input and button are in a form. Hope this helps @vvkgdm!

[bugron]

@vvkgdm thanks for posting this issue!
@natac13 is correct. You should remove the new form element and add form-control class to <input type="text" placeholder="cat photo URL" required>.
Closing this issue. If you have problems with your code, please, post a message in our Gitter chat room first, thanks.

<div class="btn btn-primary"><input type="text" class="form-control" placeholder="cat photo URL" required><button type="submit"><i class="fa fa-paper-plane">Submit</i></button></div>

Give the submit button in your form the classes btn btn-primary. Why is this error there ?

@esaky you should add the btn class to the button nest:
