When you declare the for loop you are missing the i variable in your comparison. It's meant to be i <= 100 you just have <= 100.

If you add the i like this:

var html = '';

for (var i =1; i <= 100; i +=1 ) { // Added "i" to the comparison (middle) step
  html += '<div>' + i + '</div>';
}
document.write(html);

Then your code will work.

I've tried several versions of code and I'm not getting it to work. Including the answer above!

I had the same issue - my issue was that when I created the script.js file, I didn't put it within the js folder. I just right clicked and created a new folder.

Once I dragged the file into the js folder, the link on the index page worked and I was able to preview the divs.
