I'm on Pt. 2 of 2, and the error message reads "Bummer. You need to select the 'input' element, and store its value...", even though the challenge prompt instructs us to return the text content of the <a> element with ID 'link'.

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>DOM Manipulation</title>

<link rel="stylesheet" href="style.css" />

<div id="content">

<input type="text" id="linkName">
