My JavaScript Code is not accepted

The following code is working as expected in the preview, But not accepted by the challenge.

var isAdmin = true; var isStudent = false;

if(isAdmin === true){ document.write("Welcome Administrator"); }

It is asking Did you add 'true' in the conditional statement. I already included true there in the statement

script.js 
var isAdmin = true;
var isStudent = false;

if(isAdmin === true){
  document.write("Welcome Administrator");
}
index.html 
<!DOCTYPE HTML>

You did not complete the question correctly:

"If it is then open an alert with the message "Welcome administrator". "

you did not use the alert method, you used the document.write method.
