ul.addEventListener("click", (e) => {
if (e.target.tagName === "BUTTON") {
const button = e.target;
const li = button.parentNode;
const ul = li.parentNode;
if (button.textContent === "remove") {
ul.removeChild(li);
} else if (button.textContent === "edit") {
const span = li.firstElementChild;
const input = document.createElement("input");
input.type = "text";
input.value = span.textContent;
li.insertBefore(input, span);
li.removeChild(span);
button.textContent = "save";
} else if (button.textContent === "save") {
const input = li.firstElementChild;
const span = document.createElement("input");
span.textContent = input.value;
li.insertBefore(span, input);
li.removeChild(input);
button.textContent = "edit";
}
}
});

element; but in this code it creates a new, empty input
element (named "span").
