Oops! It looks like Task 1 is no longer passing.

why does this challenge keep coming back. I inputed the correct code,but it just keeps saying Oops! It looks like Task 1 is no longer passing. i would love to know how to pass this or stop it I'm ok with either option.

app.js 
var id = "23188xtr";
var lastName = "Smith";

var userName =id.toUpperCase() + '#' + lastName;
index.html 
<!DOCTYPE HTML>

You to use the lastName.toUpperCase(), if it still says the bummer you need to use += for putting value inside userName like this: var id = "23188xtr"; var lastName = "Smith";

var userName = id.toUpperCase(); userName += '#' + lastName.toUpperCase();
