The code looks right but does not work.

Sep 5th, 2008

Hi,

In the code below, when I click on the link Colour, it needs to connect to javascript function and display "Hello" or alert message. For some reason, it does not do it.

If anyone spots a mistake, pleeese let me know - I'll be here.

Appreciate!

You don't have the close brace } on the function
