Why my external javascript file cannot link to my html?

Question

I've already pretty well at html and css. Now i considering learn JS and when i link my html file to the JS file, it's not working.

Here's my html

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head>
    <meta charset="utf-8">
    <title>Test Java Script</title>
    <script scr="script.js"></script>
  </head>
  <body>
    <!--<h1>Hello</h1>
    -->
    <script>
      alert("if this page blank, external js file not executed!")
    </script>
  </body>
</html>

and here's my javascript

document.write("works!")

It's pretty simple, just want to know if it works or not, please help me. Thank you.

there is a typo here <script scr="script.js"></script> it should be <script src="script.js"></script> — Rosh_LK

The correct word is src (source), modify this line:

scr="script.js"

src="script.js"

<script scr="script.js"></script>

is what you have...

<script src="script.js"></script>

should work...

document.write("Works!");

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head>
    <meta charset="utf-8">
    <title>Test Java Script</title>
    <script src="script.js"></script>
  </head>
  <body>
    <!--<h1>Hello</h1>
    -->
    <script>
      alert("if this page blank, external js file not executed!")
    </script>
  </body>
</html>
