Maybe someone else also has the same problem?
I try to enter to my task in FCC but it stucks… I clear my browser, but it didn’t help.
Someone has any idea what it could be?

#2

Is this happening on one particular challenge or on multiple? How’s your internet connection?

#3

I had any problems with internet connection and I can’t enter to another challenge, because when I’m entering I always get stuck…

#4

I try to solve the “Confirm the ending” challenge (https://www.freecodecamp.org/challenges/confirm-the-ending), and when I put this code everything crashed… Maybe I made an infinite loop, but I know that in FCC there are some blockers for this case…
If it’s possible, please, help me but without spoilers!
Here is my code:

function confirmEnding(str, target)
{
for (var i = 0; i < str.length; i++)
if (target == str.substr(i))
{
return true;
} return false;
}

confirmEnding (“Open sesame”, “open”);

Without spoilers maybe tricky, but I’ll start with some hints.

  • Check your curly brackets for the for loop

  • You have some weird formatting applied to your strings. “ should be "

  • Think about using an else block or replace the if block with a ternary

That will at least allow it to run. Then you are on your own :slight_smile:

#6

I’ll try, but now I can’t enter this challenge… :grinning:
How can I cancel my code?

#7

ah, got you. Try go to freecodecamp and click on map, select your challenge from the list.

#8

Try disabling auto run.
Another option is to clear the challenge data from your browser cache. This will cause you to lose any code you have written so far.

Thanks a lot!
I put #?run=disabled in my URL and it works! :grinning:

#10

Awesome! Thanks for confirming this worked!
