Hi Brian, I have two things to say about this bit of code. First of all, totally get rid of the tab index attribute. Second of all, you have potentially inaccessible code, because you need to put a label tag around each field label, and use the for attribute to associate that piece of text with the id attributes of each check box. In other words, you do something like <label for = "jaws">JAWS</label> and so on.
