I can't see whats wrong with my JavaScript code

I am trying to follow the video and write the code and try to get working. BUT when i run the script, it's not showing anything. I can't see where my code has an error. the console in chrome says "playlist.js:33 Uncaught ReferenceError: playList is not defined at playlist.js:33" I can't see what I am doing wrong.

Please show your whole code.

Code

Wrap your code with 3 backticks (```) on the line before and after. If you specify the language after the first set of backticks, that'll help us with syntax highlighting.

      ```html
      <p>This is code!</p>
      ```

Even better, you can share the entire project at once if you make a snapshot of your workspace and post the link to it here.

you are referencing playList but what is the playlist actually called? Is it using camel case in your code in the way you referenced it? Is it called simply playlist? It seems to me you're probably just experiencing a typo so scan the code. As others have said, it'll be more helpful in the future if you can paste your code.

Cheers!

Comb through your program for typos. I had your same problem, but I looked closer and found a problem with my quotation marks. I hope this helps! :)
