Problem with this code challenge.

var a = 10; var b = 20; var c = 30;

if (a > b){ alert("a is greater than b."); } else { alert("a is NOT greater than b."); }

script.js 
var a = 10;
var b = 20;
var c = 30;

if (a > b){
  alert("a is greater than b.");
} else { 
  alert("a is NOT greater than b.");
}

Figured it out. In case anyone else is having this issue, I deleted the period from my alert message and it worked.
