Receiving an error that I can't seem to solve. Board.js:35 Uncaught TypeError: space.drawSVGSpace is not a function.

I am getting the start button to show up but when I click it, nothing happens and I get errors in the console.

I can't figure out why I'm receiving this error. The complete error is as follows:

Board.js:35 Uncaught TypeError: space.drawSVGSpace is not a function at Board.drawHTMLBoard (Board.js:35) at Game.startGame (Game.js:24) at HTMLButtonElement.<anonymous> (app.js:8) drawHTMLBoard @ Board.js:35 startGame @ Game.js:24 (anonymous) @ app.js:8

My repository can be found here: https://github.com/Bigjames728/4-in-a-Row.git

If there is another way I should show my code please let me know. Since I don't know exactly where the error is I didn't know which part I should copy paste. It does say line 35 of my Board.js file but I can't find anything there. Thanks so much for any help provided!!

Hi James,

Board.js line 35 is written as "drawSVGSpace()" but Space.js line 27 names the function as "drawSVGSpaces()".

Once that's fixed you'll hit another error on Game.js line 25 since there isn't yet a getter for activePlayer. Either comment out that line for now or add in the getter and you'll be able to see the board drawn.
