4,736 PointsParse error, erm, where exactly it is?
So I get an error message but I don't get where the error is, it doesn't tell which line contains error. Also I don't quite get what "selecting" a tag means, did I do that part right?
//Show Prompt Window and store value
var fullName = prompt("What is your full name?");
//Select Input with the id of #fullName
var inputName = ("#fullName");
//Insert value in to full name input
function() {
$inputName.val("fullName");
};
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
</head>
<body>
<label for="fullName">Full Name</label><input id="fullName" name="fullName" value="" disabled>
<script src="//code.jquery.com/jquery-1.11.0.min.js" type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8"></script>
<script src="js/app.js" type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8"></script>
</body>
</html>

20,629 PointsHere is what they are looking for
$("#fullName").val(fullName);
The first part selects the input #fullName
the second sets it to the value of the prompt message .val(fullName);
