problem with html5 course example

[ramjr2012]

Hi,

I'm learning/reviewing HTML and HTML5 through courses from John Bura of Mammoth Interactive. One of his example uses this JavaScript code:

var aCanvas = document.getElementById("aCanvas");
var context = aCanvas.getContext("2d");
context.fillStyle('red');
context.fillRect(0,0,100,100);

The HTML page is:

<title>JS Bin</title>

In his example, run, I think, on an older jsbin.com, this draws a red square.

When I plug it into the current jsbin.com I don't see anything.

Since I'm just learning most of this and in particular am not a JavaScript programmer, I don't know if this is a problem with what I've typed (I've reviewed it a dozen times, so I may be missing something), a problem with the original presentation material, or with the web page.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Oops, it seems I need to escape the HTML, somehow. Please let me know if it is needed and if so how to escape the code.

Thanks.

Can you share a jsbin url (from your code) so I can see?

This issue has been automatically marked as stale because it has not had recent activity. More importantly, jsbin has been undergoing a massive refactor by Remy, and a large number of issues have been resolved, but with the growing 600+ open issues, the Stalebot (me), has been brought in to try to manage the issues.
Keep an eye on jsbin.com blog posts and the @js_bin twitter account for updates on the new version of jsbin ❤️
It will be closed next week if no further activity occurs. Thank you for your contributions.
