How do I open an alert dialog within the html file using JavaScript?

The objective is to create an alert "warning", only every time I try, the command is rejected, saying I need to put the function inside the "alert" function.

index.html 
<!DOCTYPE HTML>
<html>
<head>
  <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8">
  <title>JavaScript Basics</title>
</head>
<body>
  <script>
    alert("warning");
  </script>
  </body>
</html>

You are very close, you only need to capitalize "Warning". These code challenges are very sensitive :P
