Solution to 16/19

Many people are having problem with the code , even though it is most probably correct. The thing is you need to change the domain name from http://www.codecademy.com to https://www.codecademy.com/learn , since the former no longer exists. So the code will look something like this

var xhr = new XMLHttpRequest(); xhr.open(“GET”, “https://www.codecademy.com/learn“, false); xhr.send();

console.log(xhr.status); console.log(xhr.statusText);

It also works with just adding the ‘s’ to http, without appending ‘learn’. Perhaps the person who moderates this tutorial should update the instructions and hints to reflect the correct web address? It may save some people a little frustration!
