So in the tutorial where you have to fix sripts.js you have to open the console and check for errors, and there should be a syntax error on line 3 or 4, however in the console it says it is line 122 and I assume it is counting the whole code and I do not know why. Even though I go to the correct the problem the alert still won't pop out, I am using chrome from windows. I might need to change some settings in the browser or something, could anyone help what could be the problem. Thank you.

Treehouse TeacherI'm wondering if maybe you have popups disabled and it's blocking it? Click on the menu in the upper right then choose Settings. Choose show advanced settings way at the bottom and then look under Privacy. There you should find a button that says "Content settings..." Click that and look under popups. If popups are blocked, try enabling them.
Otherwise, we're going to need to see your code :)

5,730 PointsIf I reload the page few times eventually the pop-up works but it still shows me that is on line 122 because it checks the whole project code. Is that a common issue?
