Even if they're not required at the end of a line, it's a "best practice" to put semicolons at the end of each statement. Since they weren't there, when the lack of formatting folded the lines above, the code became non-functional.
And to prevent line folding and other undesirable changes, always use the instructions for code formatting in the Markdown Cheatsheet pop-up below the "Add an Answer" area. Or watch this video on code formatting.
