--description--

Now let's get your form input and your submission button on the same line. We'll do this the same way we have previously: by using a div element with the class row, and other div elements within it using the col-xs-* class.

Nest both your form's text input and submit button within a div with the class row. Nest your form's text input within a div with the class of col-xs-7. Nest your form's submit button in a div with the class col-xs-5.

This is the last challenge we'll do for our Cat Photo App for now. We hope you've enjoyed learning Font Awesome, Bootstrap, and responsive design!

--hints--

Your form submission button and text input should be nested in a div with class row.

js
const textInput = document.querySelectorAll('div.row input[type="text"]'); 
const submitInput = document.querySelectorAll('div.row button[type="submit"]');
assert.lengthOf(textInput,1);
assert.lengthOf(submitInput, 1);

Your form text input should be nested in a div with the class col-xs-7.

js
const textInput = document.querySelectorAll('div.col-xs-7 input[type="text"]'); 
assert.lengthOf(textInput ,1);

Your form submission button should be nested in a div with the class col-xs-5.

js
const submitInput  = document.querySelectorAll('div.col-xs-5 button[type="submit"]'); 
assert.lengthOf(submitInput ,1);

All of your div elements should have closing tags.

js
assert.match(code,/<\/div>/g);
assert.match(code,/<div/g);

assert.equal(code.match(/<\/div>/g).length,code.match(/<div/g).length);
