If you show your code, someone might be able to spot the problem.
Even better, make a snapshot of your workspace and post the link to it here.

Hi there,

Try a code like this one below:

var str = "Hello World!"; var res = str.toLowerCase();

If you wish to convert to lower or upper case the string selected, you will need to write the string (for example var str = "Hello World" and attached the method of toLowerCase(); or to UpperCase(); preceded by a "."

You may have a capitalization error.

Since I haven't seen your code, this is just a guess — but the actual names of those functions are toUpperCase() and toLowerCase() (both start with a lower-case "t").

Since JavaScript is case-sensitive, if you spelled them with capital "T" that may be the problem.
