I pass the first step then i get to the second step and it says step one isnt going through

my question above sums up what's happening. I pass the first test then i go to the second one, type in the shout.js file alert("I DID IT"); and it tells me that my step one isn't functioning properly... then why would it let me through?!

<body>
  <script src="shout.js"></script>

</html>
shout.js 
alret("I DID IT!");
