7,280 PointsCan you use double quotation-marks, instead of single - which is used in Guil's video - to access the targeted element?
I am wondering this, because I prefer having consistency in my code - either I settle on double marks; or I settle on the single quotation-marks. I think having a mix is somewhat confusing.

230,688 PointsJavaScript accepts both types of quotes interchangeably, as long as they are used in matched pairs.
And consistency in your own code is considered a "best practice"!

Treehouse TeacherAbsolutely, Buster Siem! I switch them up from time to time to remind you that you can use either type. But do keep an eye out for consistency. :)
