I don't know why this is not working. I followed the direction and yet is till not working. I keep getting parse error. The question is on 'andrew' and 'ryan' set the 'greet' method as the 'genericGreet' function.

I think you just forgot commas after "Andrew" and after "Ryan"..
;)
Let me know if that sorts it out, otherwise I will have a deeper look.

<script>
genericGreet = function() {
return "Hello, my name is " + this.name;
}
var andrew = {
name: "Andrew",
greet: genericGreet
}
var ryan = {
name: "Ryan",
greet: genericGreet
}
</script>
Edit: Looks like you did that. But you forgot to add the comma between sets of key:values. You need a comma between each set both "Andrew" and "Ryan"
