Anatomy of Backbone 1-7

challenge-1-7.js

var Appointment = Backbone.Model.extend({});
var appointment = new Appointment();
appointment.set('title', 'My knee hurts');
var AppointmentView = Backbone.View.extend({
  render: function(){
    $(this.el).html('<li>' + this.model.get('title') + '</li>');
  }
});
var appointmentView = new AppointmentView({model: appointment});

it's just a JQuery selector that gets an element with the id of "app" from the html file. however, since the code school course doesn't show html files, you just have to assume that this backbone script is called from an html doc that has a tag with an id of "app". this is where you nest the appointment view's element (li). was that what you were asking?

this exercise, "Set the Title", and "View Instance" seem not to be working correctly.
