Treehouse TeacherHi there! Your code is functional, but you've done something the challenge isn't expecting and included more than one set of script tags. You've included this line:
<script src="java.js"></script>
This line is causing the challenge to fail. Try to keep in mind that challenges are very strict and it's always a good idea to try not to do anything the challenge doesn't explicitly ask for. Even if functional, it can cause the challenge to fail. On a side note, in many cases incorrect punctuation, spelling, capitalization, and spacing inside a string can cause a challenge to fail. In this case, that doesn't happen. But technically, according to the specifications of the challenge you should be issuing an alert with "Warning!", not "warning!".
Hope this helps!
