I seem to be struggling with this one...
Challenge Task 2 of 3
jQuery's fail() method takes a callback function as an argument. The function is run when there's an error in the AJAX response. Pass an anonymous function as an argument to the method. Don't forget to set a parameter for that function. Use the name jqXHR for the parameter -- this parameter will hold a jQuery XHR object passed by the fail() method to the function.
Any help would be appreciated.

$("#footer").html(data);
}).fail(function(jqHR){});
Try this. You need to add an anonymous function as a parameter to the fail method. Remember the fail method is chained directly to the end of get(). Hope this works. :)
