Each prompt() dialog box opens twice. I followed some of the questions people have asked before, but it doesn't appear that the story.js source is repeated in the HTML file. HELP.

Python Web Development Techdegree Student 467 PointsDo you know why the following code would pop up two prompts? var noun = prompt("please enter a noun"); document.write(noun);
