Hi Bruno,

You just need to adjust your function slightly. You are missing some syntax from your getElementById.

function print(message){
    var div = document.getElementById('myDiv');
    div.innerHTML = message;
}

Hope that helps!

Hey Adam, Thank you for your help. I was missing the "document." Still practicing JS. It's quite difficult when you come from a design background but I'll get there. =)

Hi Bruno, you're missing document. before the getElementById();, you also have mispelled getElementById() in your code
