384 PointsAlter the event handler
Alter the event handler on line 4 to run when the form is submitted, not just when the submit button has been clicked. Leave the callback function empty for now.
const form = document.querySelector('form'); const submitButton = form.querySelector('[type=Submit]');
submitButton.addEventListener('click', () => {
});
const form = document.querySelector('form');
const submitButton = form.querySelector('[type=Submit]');
submitButton.addEventListener('click', () => {
});

Change the event handler to form and from click to submit.
Hope it helped
