toUpperCase

I have rebooted my computer and cleaned out the cache and temp files and when I key in the answer, it still asks me if I called the toUpperCase for the last name. And I see it in front of me.

app.js 
var id = "23188xtr"; 
var lastName = "Smith"; 
var userName = userName + "#" + lastName.toUpperCase();
index.html

I just tried it, and it seems to want this:

var userName = id.toUpperCase() + "#" + lastName.toUpperCase();
