3,008 PointsPerform: Part 3 - spoiler span display error
Hi,
I am following along with the tutorials, and for some reason my code isn't working. I am able to hide the span and apply the button; however, the click event handler doesn't seem to be doing its job. The spoiler span is displayed on page load, and the button never appears. It's like by default the button is clicked when the page loads. Here's the code:
//1, Hide spoiler $(".spoiler span").hide(); //2, Add a button $(".spoiler").append("<button>Reveal Spoiler!</button>"); //3, When button clicked $("button").click(function() { $("spoiler span").show(); }

3,008 PointsI noticed that I was missing the dot on the last $("spoiler span"), but that didn't seem to fix the problem
