Tysm! Moshe Schnitzler and AnonyMouse , what do you mean no reference? I made a canvas, gave it an id, used the id in the js section with the function and used setInterval to call it.

The x and y variables should be declared outside the draw function. Everytime you call the function you redeclare x and y so its not being incremented

I don't see any reference to the javascript anywhere in the html or css, the function draw never seems to be called

Also, before you start drawing, clear the previous frame with context.clearRect(0, 0, 600, 400)
