Challange Task 2 cannot be done

Select the second SPAN element on the page and assign it to the variable lastName on line 2. Take a look in the index.html to see the structure of the document.

app.js
var fullName = document.getElementById("full_name");
var lastName = document.getElementsByTagName("last_name");
index.html
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head></head>
<body>
<h1 id="full_name"><span class="first_name">Andrew</span> <span class="last_name">Chalkley</span></h1>

<script src="app.js"></script>
</body>
</html>

I solved it:

var fullName = document.getElementById("full_name"); var lastName = document.getElementsByClassName("last_name")[0];
