I don't understand what I'm doing wrong.

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

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

Full Stack JavaScript Techdegree Graduate 35,193 PointsYou're SO close! This is kind of confusing. You actually have to include your src inside of the first script arrow-brackets, like this:
<script src="shout.js"> </script>
Hope that helps! Happy coding!

Full Stack JavaScript Techdegree Graduate 35,193 PointsHa! You must have submitted your answer while I was typing out mine. Because this had no answers when I clicked on it. Funny! Let's just hope we're both right, otherwise that would be awkward ;)

229,787 PointsThat's nice to hear. One possible factor in our favor is everyone is here for learning .. over there they might often be dealing with issues under pressure for business.
