specifies external script file shout.js. That is all the code that should be in your html.
The actual script code goes into that external file - the second black box above titled shout.js. That is a separate tab in the challenge that you will have to click to edit.

2,506 Pointshave your alert(); written in the shout.js file and not the index.html.
the source on the index page is was already written in for me when i done it but if needed its <script src="shout.js"> <shout.js> and that would be in the index page.
