Hello, why is it that when I try to code function drawText(), it will not run?

Can you post your full code? Also, what tutorial are you using? We will take a look :grinning:

I’m using the JavaScript Absolute Beginner’s Guide. I’m on Ch. 5

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>

<head>
    <meta charset="utf-8">
    <title>Loops!</title>

    <style>

    </style>
</head>

<body>
    <script>
        for (let i = 0; i > 10; i++) {
            saySomething();
        }

        function saySomething() {
            document.writeIn("hello!")
        }
    </script>
</body>

</html>

You were very close. The document.writeIn("hello!") is actually document.writeln("hello!"). This is a very subtle spelling mistake.

It has to do with the spelling of writeln. It is short for writeline. What you have as a capital “I” should actually be a lowercase “L” :slight_smile:

Once you make that one letter change, your code should work!
