22,128 PointsI don't understand the question. Stuck and cannot find new solution. Hint is very unhelpful.
I keep receiving the same 'hint' when my response is checked as incorrect. It reads " I was expecting 'target' to be 'blank' not '' "
I've reviewed the jQuery api and as far as I can tell, I'm using attr() appropriately. Maybe I am misunderstanding the question?
$('external a').attr("target", "_blank");
