Error Alert

When I type the code below the alert box does not pop up. <html> <head> <title></title> <script type="text/javascript"> alert("This is an alert box!"); </script> </head> <body> </body> </html> If I copy the exact same code and paste it below the code the alert box works perfectly. When I write it once I get this error : SyntaxError: expected expression, got '<' Line: 4 Anyone know what's going wrong?

This code works as is, without any error message ^^ And anyway, the error message copied doesn't rely on this code, because there's no "Line: 4" in the Js script source: maybe you have typo mistake in your original making it not working (and maybe line 4 error is related to something in the JS tab, if you was testing this in code playground)... but try again, this alert box pop-up at first run of the code ;P
