Variable students is not defined

Also...Make sure that your student property 'name' in students.js is NOT 'Name'.

I'm a bit unclear about from where you're copying the code (following along versus downloading it), but I'll take a whack at the issue.

This might be something as simple as what order you're importing the JS files in index.html. If students.js is imported first, then that variable object is added to the global namespace. You should be able to call it anywhere in JS files after that.

Another issue might be a missed directory or some other typo. if it's not able to find the students.js file, it can't load that variable. Those are the two most common things I've run into with JS.

the code should look like:

<script src="js/students.js"></script>
<script src="js/student_report.js"></script>

You may want to make sure that your variable in the student_report.js file is "student" and the array with the student objects you are referencing is "students". I forgot the s for one, even when I followed along with the solution. When I looked at it one more time, I found my error.

So in the javascript:

// at the top your student variable should be singular "student" not "students" 
// remember that this is a completely different variable from the "students" in the other file
var student; // up top

// and in the for loop:

for (var i = 0; i < students.length; i++) {
  student = students[i];
  // rest of the stuff that builds the message, etc.
}
// this takes the data from the student.js (the file with the student information)
// and uses the for loop parameters to cycle through it

The other thing is to double check your javascript file spellings and if they are nested in the js folder or not. Funny how one typo can mess you up.

<script src="js/students.js"></script>
<script src="js/student_report.js"></script>
