Python Development Techdegree Student 9,648 PointsHello Guys, I am stuck with this one and I need help. I need to select all the <li> elements in the grandparent <nav> .
Hello Guys, I am stuck with this one and I need help. I need to select all the <li> elements in the grandparent <nav> element.
I am typing code : let navigationLinks = document.querySelectorAll("nav li");
What am I doing wrong here? <li> should be descendant from <nav>.
Thanks for the reply and help.
let navigationLinks = document.querySelectorAll("nav li");
let galleryLinks;

<li> elements are list items, and they won't be used in this challenge.
