BUTTON, uppercase.

Just wanted to ask, do we need to always put uppercase for the tagName because i tried it on lowercase the program doesnt seem to work.

Reference from Guil Video at 2.53 and at line 36 of his code.

Hi there, Luke Kennedy! Yes, you will. And this is because the event.target.tagName returns whatever DOM element that is in all uppercase. You can find the documentation here.

Hope this helps! :sparkles:
