Here is my code:
const inStock = ['pizza', 'cookies', 'eggs', 'apples', 'milk', 'cheese', 'bread', 'lettuce', 'carrots', 'broccoli', 'potatoes', 'crackers', 'onions', 'tofu', 'limes', 'cucumbers'];
const search = prompt('Search for a product.');
let message;
if(inStock.includes(search))
{
message=`<b><u>${search}</u></b> is in stock!`;
} else {
message=`<b><u>${search}</u></b> is out of stock!`;
}
document.querySelector('main').innerHTML= ${message};
When I replace ${message} by message, it works.

Treehouse TeacherHi there, Terence Fong! I went ahead and added some markdown to your question so that it renders correctly. It looks like you forgot a pair of backticks around the {$message}. You said your code looks like this:
document.querySelector('main').innerHTML= ${message};
But that should be:
document.querySelector('main').innerHTML= `${message}`;
Note the backticks around the ${message}
Hope this helps!
