Great! Now that you have the warning selected now hide as the page loads.

The .hide() method is not working for me

js/app.js 
$(".warning")
index.html 
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
    <title>Take Evasive Action</title>
    <link rel="stylesheet" href="css/style.css" type="text/css" media="screen" title="no title" charset="utf-8">
</head>
<body>
    <p class="warning">
      <span>It's A Trap!</span>
    </p>
    <div class="image">
        <img src="img/ackbar.gif">
    </div>
    <script src="//code.jquery.com/jquery-1.11.0.min.js" type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8"></script>
    <script src="js/app.js" type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8"></script>
</body>
</html>

Hey Joshua, I just tried this code challenge and managed to get it to work:

$(".warning").hide();

What did you try?
