I`am not shure what to do here. I do not understand the requirements to finish the challenge.
const laws = document.getElementsByTagName('li');
const indexText = document.getElementById('boldIndex');
const button = document.getElementById('embolden');
button.addEventListener('click', (e) => {
const index = parseInt(indexText.value, 10);
for (let i = 0; i < laws.length; i += 1) {
let law = laws[i];
// replace 'false' with a correct test condition on the line below
if (false) {
law.style.fontWeight = 'bold';
} else {
law.style.fontWeight = 'normal';
}
}
});

Front End Web Development Techdegree Student 33,900 PointsHi Maj,
i get you, the task sounds a little cryptic... ;-)
If you look a the preview, you see this input field where you are supposed to enter a number 0, 1 or 2 for the number of the list item you want to bolden...
This number input is selected and stored in the variable index on line 6.
Then there is a loop running through the array of the three list items, counting with the array index with the variable "i".
The only thing you want to now do is to check wether index (that you entered) is equal to i.
If it is equal this list item then gets bolded.
Makes sense?
Blessings from Berlin and happy java-scripting, Nils

Front End Web Development Techdegree Student 10,200 PointsHello Nils
I does sound a bit cryptic a little less now with your assistance.
I have edited the conditional statement so that it checks [i]. Now after putting in the result I see what the challenge was wanting me to do.
Once more Nils I thank your for taking the time to help me :right-facing_fist::left-facing_fist: I hope you have a pleasant day.
