How can I combine two variables in a string method?

This challenge is a real pain in the butt.

var id = “23188xtr”; var lastName = “Smith”;

var userName = id.toUpperCase();

Hi Tianni

Just add a "+" between them:

var id = “23188xtr”; 
var lastName = “Smith”;

var userName = id.toUpperCase() + lastName.toUpperCase();

It says opps looks like task 1 is no longer passing. It could be buggy.

How did you upload that picture? It’s easier for me to just screen shot.
