Trying to complete a course in PHP, which involves Javascript. my code is 100% the same as my "Teachers" His code is working but mine isn´t... The course i am taking is 3 years old so i get no help from the instructor.. been stuck at this chapter for a week now and it´s driving me literally insane as i don´t understand JS at all...

Code: 
<!DOCTYPE html>

<html>

<head>

    <title>Canvas</title>

    <style>

        #myCanvas{

            border:1px #000 solid;

            background:#f4f4f4;

        }



    </style>

</head>

<body>

     <canvas id="myCanvas" width="300" height="300"></canvas>

     <script>

         var c = document.getElementById('myCanvas')

         var ctx = c.getContext('2d');



         //Rectangle

         ctx.fillStyle='#34ebbd';

         ctx.fillRect(75,75 150, 150);







     </script>



</body>

</html>





everything is 100% same as the instructor at this stage his rectangle get filled in the middle by a red square, Where my JS won´t execute at all ? It makes no difference it´s just stuck with it´s #f4f4f4 background...

Hey @hahahanne! Welcome to the forum. I just spend a little while looking at your code, baffled as to why it wasn't working as well. And then I noticed a little something that fixed it!

Your code here is missing a comma (between the 75 and 150):

JavaScript: 
ctx.fillRect(75,75 150, 150);

Thank you a thousand times! It worked like a charm i've spent so much time looking at the code so this little mistake just slipped right through.

Now i can finally continue with my course 🙂 thanks again!
