My employee list is not uploading to the site.

I do not know why my code is not uploading to the site. Could someone please take a look at it?

$(document).ready(function(){
  var url = "../data/employees.json";
  $.getJSON(url, function(response){
      var statusHTML = '<ul class="bulleted">';
      $.each(response, function(index, employee){
        if(employee.inoffice === true){
          statusHTML += '<li class="in">';
        }else{
          statusHTML += '<li class="out">';
        }
          statusHTML += employee.name +="</li>";
      });   //end of each function
          statusHTML += '</ul>';
          $("#emloyeeList").html(statusHTML);
  });  //end of getJSON
});  //end document ready

I formatted the code so it displays better here.

Could you also post your HTML? I noticed you have a typo where "#emloyeeList" should probably be "#employeeList"
