# --description--

There are many kinds of inputs you can create using the `type` attribute. You can easily create a password field, reset button, or a control to let users select a file from their computer.

Create a text field to get text input from a user by adding the `type` attribute with the value `text` to the `input` element.

# --hints--

You have either deleted your `input` element or it has invalid syntax. If you have added attributes, make sure their values are surrounded by quotation marks.

```js
assert($('input').length);
```

Your `form` element should only contain the `input` element. Remove any extra HTML elements or text between the `form` element's tags.

```js
assert(
  $('form')[0].children.length === 1 &&
    $('form')[0].innerText.trim().length === 0
);
```

Your `input` element does not have a `type` attribute with the value `text`. Check that there is a space after the opening tag's name and/or there are spaces before all attribute names.

```js
assert($('input')[0].hasAttribute('type'));
```

Your `input` element should have a `type` attribute with the value `text`. You have either omitted the value or have a typo. Remember that attribute values should be surrounded with quotation marks.

```js
assert(
  $('input')[0]
    .getAttribute('type')
    .replace(/\s+/g, ' ')
    .match(/^text$/i)
);
```

Although you have set the `input` element's `type` attribute to the `text`, it is recommended to always surround the value of an attribute with quotation marks.

```js
assert(!/\<input\s+type\s*=\s*text/.test(code));
```
