Edit: Thanks to suggestions from @elyyyse I was able to resolve the issue...

Hi community! This is an incomplete project but I wanted to go ahead and submit it to get some feedback. This is my first project using Javascript.

For the most part I got everything to work, however I was unable to get the message that shows after the user clicks submit, to update according to the score selected. My populateScore function runs, but the score variable within it only recognizes that element that originally has the "selected" class. Even if it updates in the html file, which I can see in real time using the browser's developer tools.

Any help on what I am missing or doing wrong would be greatly appreciated!

    Hey, CJ - You're so close! If you run your populateScore(); function inside of your submitButton event listener, it should work. The way you have it running, score = document.querySelector(".number.selected").textContent; is looking for an element that's already hidden.

How does the accessibility report work?

When a solution is submitted, we use axe-core to run an automated audit of your code.

This picks out common accessibility issues like not using semantic HTML and not having proper heading hierarchies, among others.

This automated audit is fairly surface level, so we encourage to you review the project and code in more detail with accessibility best practices in mind.

How does the CSS report work?

When a solution is submitted, we use stylelint to run an automated check on the CSS code.

We've added some of our own linting rules based on recommended best practices. These rules are prefixed with frontend-mentor/ which you'll see at the top of each issue in the report.

The report will audit all CSS, SCSS and Less files in your repository.

How does the HTML validation report work?

When a solution is submitted, we use html-validate to run an automated check on the HTML code.

The report picks out common HTML issues such as not using headings within section elements and incorrect nesting of elements, among others.

Note that the report can pick up “invalid” attributes, which some frameworks automatically add to the HTML. These attributes are crucial for how the frameworks function, although they’re technically not valid HTML. As such, some projects can show up with many HTML validation errors, which are benign and are a necessary part of the framework.

How does the JavaScript validation report work?

When a solution is submitted, we use eslint to run an automated check on the JavaScript code.

The report picks out common JavaScript issues such as not using semicolons and using var instead of let or const, among others.

The report will audit all JS and JSX files in your repository. We currently do not support Typescript or other frontend frameworks.
