I just get "Bummer:" when trying coding questions from AJAX basics

I am not sure if I am doing this wrong, but for all coding questions on AJAX basics, I only get the "Bummer:" error and no further information.

Hey there Costi Khamis ! :wave:

There was some maintenance going on with the challenges yesterday and they were temporarily not working, so it probably wasn't your code. It was only down for a few minutes though and everything should be all back to normal. Go ahead and git it another try if you haven't yet :smiley:

Sorry for the inconvenience!

This should pass task 1. If you're on task 2 you still need to perform the instructions for that step.

If you are getting "Bummer" on task 1 you might want to try again and if it still happens, contact the Support staff directly.
