Hey Ragai~

You're very close -- it's just that the script tag in your HTML isn't quite right. Move your src attribute inside of the angle brackets and you'll see your JavaScript applied, which works great.

So instead of:

<script> src="app.js"</script>

Do this:

<script src="app.js"></script>

And a quick tip for the forums: use the markdown cheatsheet linked below the comment box to format your code, makes it much easier to read. Like this:

```html
<code here>
```
