Basic JavaScript - Record Collection

**I’ve reviewed the code, painfully using the paramaters, but it still won’t pass, I’m thinking it is a syntax error I can’t see. Any help appreciated.

Describe your issue in detail here.

Your code so far

  if (prop != tracks && value != "") {
    records[id][prop] = value;
  } else if (prop === "tracks" && records[id].hasOwnProperty("tracks") === false) {
    records[id][prop] = [value];
  } else if (prop === "tracks" && value !== "") {
    records[id][prop].push(value);
  } else if (value === "") {
    delete records[id][prop];
  }
  return records;
}

updateRecords(recordCollection, 5439, 'artist', 'ABBA');
// Setup
const recordCollection = {
  2548: {
    albumTitle: 'Slippery When Wet',
    artist: 'Bon Jovi',
    tracks: ['Let It Rock', 'You Give Love a Bad Name']
  },
  2468: {
    albumTitle: '1999',
    artist: 'Prince',
    tracks: ['1999', 'Little Red Corvette']
  },
  1245: {
    artist: 'Robert Palmer',
    tracks: []
  },
  5439: {
    albumTitle: 'ABBA Gold'
  }
};

// Only change code below this line
function updateRecords(records, id, prop, value) {
  if (prop != tracks && value != "") {
    records[id][prop] = value;
  } else if (prop === "tracks" && records[id].hasOwnProperty("tracks") === false) {
    records[id][prop] = [value];
  } else if (prop === "tracks" && value !== "") {
    records[id][prop].push(value);
  } else if (value === "") {
    delete records[id][prop];
  }
  return records;
}

updateRecords(recordCollection, 5439, 'artist', 'ABBA');

Link to the challenge:

you are using a variable ‘tracks’ without declaring it anywhere…

also, you dropped a comma (,)
