Hi Nagami,

You've got an extra opening curly brace -- { -- on line 9 of students.js. This is breaking your code. Remove it and your code runs smoothly. Using the console in your browser makes debugging and finding these kinds of mistakes much easier.

You may also want to clean up line 12 of student_report.js to make it output more cleanly, like so:

message += "<h2>Student: " + students[i].name + "</h2>";

Happy coding.
