function getEntryCount() { return document.getElementsByClassName("entry").length; } window.onload = function(){ console.log(getEntryCount()); } /* you already wrote the function , I did minor adjustments. Notes whenever accessing DOM then we make sure to do so after the Dom is loaded , else we ll operate on an empty Dom. hence any Dom Operations after the onload eventlistener */

/*Daniel Cooper just pick anywhere in the html you wish to append it . for example: to set it in the footer we ll do like this inside onload eventlistener*/ document.querySelector("footer").textContent = "count : " + getEntryCount();

Thanks, but how can I add it to the page rather than the console?
