Am I missing something?

Tried following along with the video, but can't seem to get this right. Can anyone see what i'm doing wrong?

var html = ''; 

for ( var i = 1; i <= 10; i += 1 ) {
  html += '<div>' + i + '</div>';
}
document.write(html);

Thanks! R

Hi Rahim,

Your code works as it is to print the numbers 1 through 10. You might be having some trouble with Workspaces. If you would like more resources to test your code, you can use JS Bin or the JavaScript console in Chrome Dev Tools.

I hope this helps, Alex

For anyone else having trouble, double check to make sure the file "script.js" matches the file in the "index.html" code.

Had a similar issue when I created my script file (ctl clicking file JS )it actual was created in the main body of the program. Drag and drop file into js and everything works fine.
