Why is it telling me to include a <button> element? 

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head>
    <meta charset="utf-8">
    <title>HTML Forms</title>
  </head>
  <body>

    <form action="index.html" method="post">
      <h1>Shirt Order Form</h1>
                  <label for="color">Shirt Color</label>

      <select id="color" name="shirt_color">
                                      <option value="red">Red</option>
                                      <option value="yellow">Yellow</option>
