Now use a DOM element's innerHTML property to set the HTML inside the sidebar div to the server's response.

The code is not working after the 4th question - it says that question is not passing. Could you please take a look at it and see if I'm doing something wrong?

Thank you!

Hey Sonya! This might help you.

var xhr = new XMLHttpRequest();
xhr.onreadystatechange = function() {
if(xhr.readyState===4 && xhr.status===200){
 document.getElementById('sidebar').innerHTML = xhr.responseText;
}
};
xhr.open('GET', 'sidebar.html');
xhr.send();
