Solution retrospective

Spent a couple of months learning the basics of Javascript, APIs etc. and attempted this based on what I've learned. If there's a quicker or better way to do this, please let me know!

    Hi @mattyoung7, well done, but reload doesn't works on FireFox: seem that FF caching the fetch result.

    I found this solution on StackOverflow (https://stackoverflow.com/questions/72567690/ui-is-not-updating-on-click-event-that-triggers-a-fetch-on-firefox-developer) but the problem is that property called count is always incremented by one, and, if you start a new session, advice is always the same in a row.

    To avoid the same advice in a row, as you can see from my solution, I create a new Random number, and I use it only if my script detects firefox browser.

    My solution: https://github.com/EmanueleGurini/js-advicegenerator/blob/master/js/main.js

    ps. why am I using 224 as max number? Advices are 224.
