Hi everyone, when I try to log the Hello World message on the console I get this instead of “Hello World” Any idea on settings I need to change?

Hi,

I’m a beginner myself but figured I’ll try to answer.

In your html, did you add your JavaScript file using the script ta?

Sorry for the delayed response. There was something auto-populated in the filter box that was preventing things from being logged on the console. Thanks so much for replying.
