I'm taking the HTML course and I'm stuck on the <button> tag challenge!

Please advise..

<form> <form action="http://www.example.com/" method="get"> <input type="text" name="Hello World" value="Hello World"> <button type="submit" value="submit">submit</button> </form>

index.html 
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head>
    <title>HTML Mastery Challenge</title>
  </head>
  <body>
    <h1>HTML Mastery Challenge</h1>

    <!-- Write your code below -->
<div>
  <h2>Shopping List</h2>
    <ol>
      <li></li>
      <li></li>
      <li></li>

    </div>
    <p><strong></strong></p>
    <form>
      <form action="http://www.example.com/" method="get"> 
      <input type="text" name="Hello World" value="Hello World">
      <button type="submit" value="submit">submit</button>

You have a form ensted inside a form 

<form>
      <form action="http://www.example.com/" method="get"> 
      <input type="text" name="Hello World" value="Hello World">
      <button type="submit" value="submit">submit</button>
  </form>

That's not something you can do.

I think the problem is that your form method it's get. and the action you put anything or they said to put it?

<form action="#" method="POST">

      <input type="text" name="Hello World" value="Hello World">
      <button type="submit" value="submit">submit</button>
  </form>

I already removed the "action" from the form and it worked. Thanks :)
