Do you have quotation marks within your parentheses?

Example:

document.write("<h1>Welcome to JavaScript Basics</h1>"); === thumbs up.

document.write(<h1>Welcome to JavaScript Basics</h1>); === thumbs down.

Code must be written exactly, and if there are strings, or quotes. They must be included, as indicated. Plus be sure to add a semi-colon or it might break, or fail to work.
