email validation plugin challenge 3//4

On the next line select the "textarea" call "validEmail" and pass in the parameters of "on" set to "keyup", and "success" and "failure" set to empty anonymous functions.

    var isValid = $("input").validEmail();
   $("textarea").validEmail({on: "keyup", success: _success_handler_, failure: _failure_handler_});

I'm sure I'm doing something silly, but can't seem to figure it out. I'm recieving the: You didn't call 'validEmail' on the selected textarea.

Ok you're close. "success_handler" and "failure_handler" are place holders for you, giving you a hint of what you should be entering. Essentially, you want your anonymous functions to replace those place holders.

Anonymous functions look like: function(){}

Hope this helps!

Thank you Liz. I had tried that before but i realize now that i left off the "{}" on the function(). Silly me!
