Hi Robert,

The string in this question isn't complete. Think about what character is needed to signify the start and end of a string (it's not looking for a variable). Let me know if you get stuck!

Hi Robert!

I think you are throwing yourself off by incorrectly rewriting the quiz question.

You have:

const message = "You're welcome___!;

But the original question has this:

const message = "You're welcome!___;

In other words, you want the missing character inserted between the exclamation point and the semicolon, otherwise, the exclamation point would NOT be included in the string and you would end up with this error:

Uncaught SyntaxError: Unexpected token '!'

One more hint:

const message = "I'm a string!";

That's a correctly coded string variable.

What does it have that the quiz example doesn't?

I hope that helps.

Stay safe and happy coding!

I got it.

"

I still have a few more other questions that are getting me behind. like this below.

Assign your first name to the variable firstName and your last name to lastName?

Give the header element a class attribute. Then, set the class value to main-header?

Thanks again Peter,

I have to ask another question below if I may.

Next, target the unordered list that is a descendant of the main-content class. Add a background-color property and set the value to papayawhip. Not sure about this one. I came up with this and got my bummer reply.

.main-content p { background-color: papayawhip; }
