2,177 Pointsmy code is not working, can you let me know where I am wrong?
My code does not add the player that is typed on the form. this is my code in App. js: import React, {Component} from 'react'; import Header from './Header'; import Player from './Player'; import AddPlayerForm from './AddPlayerForm';
class App extends Component { state = { players: [ { name: "Guil", id: 1, score: 0,
},
{
name: "Treasure",
id: 2,
score: 0,
},
{
name: "Ashley",
id: 3,
score: 0,
},
{
name: "James",
id: 4,
score: 0,
}
],
}; //player id counter prevPlayerID = 4 ;
handleRemovePlayer = (id) => { this.setState( prevState => { return { players: prevState.players.filter(p => p.id !== id) }; }); }
handleScoreChange = (index, change) => { this.setState( prevState => ({ score: prevState.players[index].score += change })); }
handleAddPlayer = (name) => {
this.setState({
players: [
...this.state.players,
{
name: name,
score: 0,
id: this.prevPlayerID += 1,
}
]
});
}
render() { return ( <div className="scoreboard"> <Header title="Scoreboard" players = {this.state.players} />
{/* Players list */}
{this.state.players.map( (player,index) =>
<Player
name={player.name}
id={player.id}
key={player.id.toString()}
index = {index}
changeScore={this.handleScoreChange}
removePlayer={this.handleRemovePlayer}
score={player.score}
/>
)}
<AddPlayerForm addPlayer = {this.handleAddPlayer}/>
</div>
);
} }
export default App;
---------------------------------and this is my code in AddPlayerForm.js :
import React,{Component} from 'react';
class AddPlayerForm extends Component { state = { value: "", }
handleValueChange = (event) => {
this.setState({
value:event.target.value
}
)
}
handleSubmit = (e) => {
e.preventdefault();
this.props.addPlayer(this.state.value);
}
render(){
return (
<form onSubmit = {this.handleSubmit}>
<input
type = "text"
value = {this.state.value}
onChange = {this.handleValueChange}
placeholder = "Enter a player's name"
/>
<input
type = "submit"
value = "Add Player"
/>
</form>
);
}
} export default AddPlayerForm;

2,177 PointsSorry, already saw the problem. My e.preventDefault() was e.preventdefault()
