JavaScript DOM Scripting By Example Adding and Removing Names Tour the Application

Need Help with an error

Working out of the workspace on Dom scripting by example, I do the first steps as instructed. However, I keep getting a error code on the console that says console is not defined in app.js?? Is there a setting I need enable to not get that code so i can get the program to work??

Make sure you didn't do what I did. I didn't see anything in the console until I looked back at my code and realized I had two closing script tags. Once I made the change, the message appeared in the console as expected.

I had the same problem and changed <script type="text/javascript" src="app.js"></script> to <script src="app.js"></script> and then it worked. Hope that helps!

I think you should try it out in your workspace, so it will be easier for you to share your project and for other people to debug your code. Anyway, there shouldn't be differences between working in Treehouse's Workspace and working on your machine, So be sure to check your code again for syntax errors

I had the same problem then I saw I had the reference to wrong folder in src:

<script src="app.js"></script> changed to <script src="css/app.js"></script> then it worked
