When i write the javascript nothing happens. I double checked everything there is no console error and any error on the html. Can someone help me out here?
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8">
<title>Circles</title>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="css/styles.css">
</head>
<body id="color">
<script src="js/script.js"></script>
</body>
</html>
var html = '';
for ( var i = 1; i <= 10; i += 1 ) {
html += '<div>' + i + '</div>';
}

2,568 PointsI had the same issue with this workspace. I checked the console and was getting an error loading the script.js file. It finally resolved after I moved the script.js file out of the js folder and changed the reference from
<script src="js/script.js"></script>
to
<script src="script.js"></script>
...not sure what's up with that folder as it seemed to be working for Dave.

console.log(html);
Otherwise, you're just creating a variable and not doing anything with it.
