Show your code.

Code

Wrap your code with 3 backticks (```) on the line before and after. If you specify the language after the first set of backticks, that'll help us with syntax highlighting.

  ```html
  <p>This is code!</p>
  ```

or

You can use the snapshot function in the workspace and provide the link to that

Your code absolutely correctly. You wrote it wrong. Please fixed your document.write(). Inside the document.write() you use apostrophs, but this is not a string, this is a variable name. Hope this help.

document.write('adjective');

change to 

document.write(adjective);

Please, share all your code and tell us what you think it should do. It will be easier then to say. Take a snapshot.

"<h2> This program is [adjective].</h2>"

I'm not sure if you know but [adjective] above does not have any special behavior. It is just plain text. You can't have placeholders in a string like that. That can be accomplished with template literals though. For now, I suggest you watch the few last videos again and do it like Dave teaches. You need to concatenate it.

like so:

var adjective = prompt('Please type an adjective'); 
var sentence = "<h2>The program is " + adjective;
document.write(sentence);
