Please copy paste the token.sol and token.js files if possible

5

sure i could. is there a way to paste it here? or do i have to make a link of it?
what would be the right way to send?
truly help would be appreciated.

you just copy paste it in here as a reply, but wrap it in 2 ticks which look like this: ``

hey! thankyou vey much again. please check the code :slight_smile:

the formatting is not quite right :sweat_smile:

but if that is the whole code, then the problem is clearly that your Token contract does not have a balanceOf() function. So I assume that you were trying to mix code from two different sources/tutorials

My contract does not have had that function. Trying to check if you have the same function implemented in the contract as well.
