Courses Plus Student 22,106 Pointsit shows the error that "Your implementation is off. Try again"
The question is {Complete the implementation of the merge method in utilities.js file. You should be able to pass in a string with placeholders with percent signs (%) surrounding them. The second parameter should be an object with values to be inserted in to the placeholders. Look at index.js to see how it should work.}
var utilities = require("./utilities");
var mailValues = {encoding:"utf8"};
mailValues.first_name = "Janet";
var emailTemplate = "Hi %first_name%! Thanks for completing this code challenge :)";
var mergedContent = utilities.merge(emailTemplate, mailValues);
//mergedContent === "Hi Janet! Thanks for completing this code challenge :)";
function merge(content, values) {
for (var key in values) {
content = content.replace("%%" + key + "%%", values[key]);
}
return content;
}
module.exports.merge = merge;

Treehouse TeacherYou're doing great! But for some reason you have double percent signs. If you change each to single percent signs, it passes the challenge. Take a look at the line you need:
content = content.replace("%" + key + "%", values[key]);
