Hey, Steven, Glad to have a brother! :)

here is the question I keep missing. If I get it right I can pass the course.

Finish the code below, so that the function returns the message variable.

function greeting( name){ var message ="Hello" + name; _________; }

Thanks, Sherry

The answer is hinted in the question.

Where it says, "...so that the function returns the message variable", it's hinting that you need to add a return statement, and message is the variable that should be passed back.

You might want to review the video Getting Information From a Function.

Finish the code below, so that the function returns the message variable:

function greeting( name){ var message ="Hello" + name; _________; }

/* I typed "return message();" in the blank, it's not correct... */
