Your code is fine, it passes for me.
Refresh your browser and try again or reset and refresh your browser then try again.
If you are not using chrome, please switch to chrome

Which browser are you in.?
Maybe resetting your code and trying again might help.

Try it in chrome, if that error still exist, refresh the browser or reset it and try again, it should definitley work in chrome,

I use latest version of both firefox and chrome, it works in both.

same code is working on mine. Try resetting the code or deleting the browsing history. Or else skip the challange and go to another as your code is right. I recommend copying this code in your text editor and see if result is ok. If it is who cares about the challenge not fulfilled. Things r working. LOL
