Tells me to finish code <script _____________></script> with file app.js. I put in src = "app.js", but doesn't work?

Am I doing something wrong? I feel I am doing it right. I am a beginner, but is something wrong? Won't let me move on to the next lesson :(

Raven,

Are you putting spaces around your equals sign? If so, remove those, and you should be good.

You don't want this:

<script src = "app.js"></script>

You want this:

<script src="app.js"></script>

Note again, the only difference is that there are no spaces around the equals sign.

Thanks that worked out fine. Are spaces not allowed when it comes to JS? And linkage of files to each other?
