In quiz, why I can’t go to the next question even if my solution is correct, but I’m using different approach?

Document should write: 23188XTR#SMITH

app.js 
var id = "23188xtr";
var lastName = "Smith";

var userName = id + '#' + lastName;
userName = userName.toUpperCase();
document.write(userName);
index.html 
<!DOCTYPE HTML>
<html>
<head>
  <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8">
  <title>JavaScript Basics</title>
</head>
<body>
<script src="app.js"></script>
</body>
</html>

You should try submitting the answer again. I copy-pasted it into the field and it got accepted.

thanks Elena Man. I know is correct but I had to use this just to pass quiz: var userName = id.toUpperCase() + '#' + lastName.toUpperCase(); But sometimes is just frustrating to make those changes.

I know! I think some of the questions are hard-coded to accept only specific answers but I am not sure. I get your frustration, happened to me a lot of times, too!
