Story Maker Project

My story maker project only worked when I deleted the closing h2 tag.

var name = prompt('Please type your name'); var sentence = '<h2>My name is ' + name; var hobby = prompt('Please name a hobby'); var drink = prompt('A drink you like'); alert('Your done. Want to see?'); sentence += ' and I like to ' + hobby; sentence += ' while drinking ' + drink + '.'; document.write(sentence);

Is there a reason? I ended up copying the instructors example exactly which worked with the </h2> tag to see what the issue could be, it worked fine. So I re-wrote my profect again but still no go if I added the closing h2 tag. It worked perfect w/o it. Any ideas out there?

There is no h2 in HTML just an h1. The h2 was to added to the JS to insert a sentence. The only reason I used the h2 tag was because in the solution the instructor had done so.
