Hi Idriss,

The proper script name is "shout.js" not "shoot.js"

Hi

Remove the space in between src= and the first quote mark, and change shoot.js to shout.js

Try this

<!DOCTYPE HTML>
<html>
<head>
  <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8">
  <title>JavaScript Basics</title>
</head>
<body>
  <script src="shout.js"></script>
</body>
</html>

Hope this helps

Paul
