Create Strings using Template Literals "Did not use template strings"

Tell us what’s happening:

Sorry if this particular issue has been answered, I have read all the other entries in the forum for this issue, and I just can’t understand why my code doesn’t work.

I am failing the third test ‘Template strings were used’, although I am clearly using template strings.

The test error message that I get is: ‘Invalid regular expression flags’. I see from other answers that fcc is looking for only alphanumeric characters between ${ and }, but I only have x so why does this not work?

My code is identical to others’ on the forums who say they passed, so I have no idea what is wrong here.

Your code so far


const result = {
  success: ["max-length", "no-amd", "prefer-arrow-functions"],
  failure: ["no-var", "var-on-top", "linebreak"],
  skipped: ["id-blacklist", "no-dup-keys"]
};
function makeList(arr) {
  "use strict";

  // change code below this line
const resultDisplayArray = arr.map(x =>`<li class="text-warning">${x}</li>`);
  // change code above this line

  return resultDisplayArray;
}
/**
 * makeList(result.failure) should return:
 * [ <li class="text-warning">no-var</li>,
 *   <li class="text-warning">var-on-top</li>, 
 *   <li class="text-warning">linebreak</li> ]
 **/
const resultDisplayArray = makeList(result.failure);

Your code is correct but, I think there is still a bug in the challenge stopping it from passing. Take a look at:

Hope this helps :slight_smile:
