231,275 PointsYou weren't selecting a link there. Links are implemented with anchor (a) elements. And there's only one "nav" element, which is what you were asking for.
This is a good place to use "querySelectorAll", since it takes a CSS-style selector and a descendant selector can be used to specifically target the links (a) that are inside the nav.
