// Problem: user interaction doesnt provide desired results.

12,614 PointsCan you tell us what line of code is in error? The Dev Tools should point you to what line the error occurred on. Also, could you paste your HTML too? It might be that the JavaScript can't find the element in the DOM which may mean that you've labeled something in your HTML incorrectly.
Also, your code needs to be changed here:
//bind checkBoxEventHandler to the checkbox
checkBox.onchange = addTask;
It should look like this:
//bind checkBoxEventHandler to the checkbox
checkBox.onchange = checkBoxEventHandler;
