<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en" dir="ltr">
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<title></title>
</head>
<body>
<script src="shout.js"> </script>
</div>
</body>
</html> // Also remember to close the </html>
and then the Js file or shout.js file
alert ("You Did It!");

11,461 PointsI did Kris. that's why I don't understand why it won't work. it's saying it has to have opening and closing script tags. I tried that too and it's not working
