In your app.js it looks like you have used an L instead of I in parseInt. You will also want to be careful with case in your variables as they should be the same as where they are declared. Your first line of code:

var totalWidth = parselnt (width) * (numOfDivs);

appears to be correct. You should use that instead of what you have in app.js.
