Dropbox JavaScript SDK access

In the head section of a web page I download the Dropbox Javascript with:

<script src="https://unpkg.com/dropbox/dist/Dropbox-sdk.min.js"></script>

then, a javascript function which invokes the following instruction does not return:

var dbx = new Dropbox({ accessToken: thisAccessToken });

where 'thisAccessToken' is the user's Dropbox access token.

Any suggestions on why the instruction does not complete?

Thanks!

    Please check the JavaScript console for any errors.

    For instance, the constructor under the 'Dropbox' class is also named 'Dropbox', so you should use `new Dropbox.Dropbox(...)' instead of `new Dropbox(...)'.
