The first argument to the $.get() method is a URL to a resource. In this case you want to load the 'footer.html' file, so pass that as the argument.
$.get('app.js', "footer.html");
This is WRONG. Please tell me why. The other things I've been trying are just as wrong.
I am kicked back with a "' Bummer! You need to pass the name of the file: "footer.html". That file is in the same folder as the index.html page, so just provide the name of the file within quotes. '"

When you're doing Challenges, try to do exactly as it tells you to do. It tells you: "The first argument to the $.get() method is a URL to a resource. In this case you want to load the 'footer.html' file, so pass that as the argument." It doesn't tell you to add anything else, so you shouldn't add anything else, and what you added isn't valid either. But that's okay! Just be sure to only do as it says:
$.get("footer.html");

Courses Plus Student 6,131 PointsDefinitely, will do.
Do you know of any resources where individuals will check on and/or improve my html-css? Building a basic 4 page website. I need to have that pristine before I can move onto jQuery AJAX forms in it.
Thanks for all your help. You have a great day!
