Am I doing something wrong?

For whatever reason when I try and preview the code I have written, nothing happens. I have looked over it all a million times and neither the alert() or document.write function seems to do anything. Here's the link: https://w.trhou.se/kf5dc14aij

Do you use the developer tools? If you check the console you'll see there is an error on line 7 of your JavaScript.

document.write('There are ' + secondsPerDay ' seconds in a day.');

There should be a + after secondsPerDay
