Can't get this piece of code to work, but I'm pretty sure it's right. Can anyone help me?
var sayButton = document.getElementById("say");
var greeting = function() {
alert("Hello World!");
}
sayButton.onClick = greeting;
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head></head>
<body>
<button id="say">Say "Hello World!"</button>
<script src="app.js"></script>
</body>
</html>

The error might be with the Capital C where you are calling the event.
var sayButton = document.getElementById("say");
var greeting = function() {
alert("Hello World!");
}
sayButton.onclick = greeting;
