Front End Web Development Techdegree Student 9,248 PointsWhy does Dave's HTML load before the Javascript runs. Mine doesn't, and looking at his code doesn't solve this.
He doesn't seem to be using the window.onload = function() { ALL YOUR SCRIPT HERE } technique or async (which I have never been able to get to work for me).
Thanks in advance for any answers you can provide.

I should have just added my code to the question. I am not at home any more and can't add it from my phone. It is basically the same as the workspaces code except the H1 doesn't load when the prompt appears.
