Please correst your backticks.

Code

Wrap your code with 3 backticks (```) on the line before and after. If you specify the language after the first set of backticks, that'll help us with syntax highlighting.

      ```html
      <p>This is code!</p>
      ```

Hi, Uche!

Let's start with the constants parent and myInput. They appear to be inside the form event listener. Let's move them outside of the event listener and place them at the top of your check.js file.
