Javascript - Numbers and Strings with dave McFarland

The Workspace I launch for this course is still previewing as the 'Time Calculator' from previous lesson even after I update and save to the first prompt in the lesson. There's no alert pop up...anyone else run into this problem? My script.js is reading: 

var HTMLBadges = prompt('How many HTML badges do you have?');
var CSSBadges = prompt('How many CSS badges do you have?);
var totalBadges = HTMLBadges + CSSBadges;
alert('Wow! You have ' + totalBadges + ' badges!');

I noticed that my index.hmtl is still reading: 

<html lang="en">
<head>
  <meta charset="utf-8">
  <link rel="stylesheet" href="css/main.css">
  <title>Time Calculator</title>
 </head>
<body>
  <div class="container">
  <h1>Time calculator</h1>
  <script src="scripts.js"></script>
  </div>
</body>
</html>

Anyway, something's off. Any ideas?

Your missing a closing quotation mark at the end of the CSSBadges prompt. I think adding that missing quote mark should solve your problem but let me know it it doesn't. Goodluck!
