4,240 PointsQuiz for Substring Matching Attribute Selectors
Okay....so I got the code structure right...but not filled in blank?
Here are the questions:
The __________ character is used to select an element whose attribute value ends with the specified substring.
I said this is the Ends with Selector and I typed the exact same name...and I got wrong.. I even took out the capitalization or quotation marks...still wrong..
The ______________ character is used to select an element whose attribute value contains at least one instance of the specified substring.
I said this is Contain Selector. I typed the exact same words and I still got wrong...I took out the quotation marks and capitalization as well...still got it wrong...
Anyone had this problem before?
