Treehouse TeacherHi there! The thing inside the parentheses to the alert should be a string. We indicate a string by placing quotation marks around it. Like so:
alert("Hi there, Carlos!");
Hope this helps!

4,213 PointsOn your current challenge they would like you to write "Welcome to my site" inside your document. To do this you will use document.write(); and place that string inside your argument. I've posted a solution below so you can see how it works.
Solution:
<!DOCTYPE HTML>
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8">
<title>JavaScript Basics</title>
</head>
<body>
</body>
<script>
// Write on Our Document //
document.write("Welcome to my site");
</script>
</html>
Note: (This is to answer the original question for this post, code above is to answer the challenge)
alert("Welcome to my site");
