Hello, i'm new to javascript and currently in a bootcamp course to become a software developer. that being said there are a lot of new ideas that have been thrown at me in the past couple weeks and i'm having trouble completing our assignment for the week. I've been tasked with creating a site that takes an input and pushes it into an array and when a button is clicked that array gets made into a card that houses a name, a hogwarts house and a button. the button on these cards needs to be able to delete the card that the button is on. I've been able to do everything up until this point. i. can't get the button to only delete one card. it deletes every card, and even when i get the button to delete one card it won't delete any other card. how do i get this to work? I'll post my code so that gives better context. //html below <!DOCTYPE html> <html lang="en"> <head> <meta charset="UTF-8"> <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0"> <meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="ie=edge"> <title>Document</title> <link rel="stylesheet" href="https://stackpath.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/4.4.1/css/bootstrap.min.css" integrity="sha384-Vkoo8x4CGsO3+Hhxv8T/Q5PaXtkKtu6ug5TOeNV6gBiFeWPGFN9MuhOf23Q9Ifjh" crossorigin="anonymous"> <link rel="stylesheet" href="main.css"> </head> <body> <div id="jumbo" class="jumbotron"> <h1 class="display-4">Sorting Hat</h1> <p class="lead">Hello muggles, are you a big fan of Harry Potter? </p> <hr class="my-4"> <p>Well you are in luck.

Hi, I started reading the chapter about Document Object Model, and I have a few beginner questions: 1. Quote from book: Isn't HTML element the root node? 2. Quote from book: But on http://www.w3schools.com/jsref/prop_node_nodetype.asp and https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Node.nodeType this is different: Also, what is the difference between "1 for an HTML element" and "10 for the HTML element"? I guess that's a mistake. Thank you in advance!

Hi all, I have just completed chapter 8 of the book and came across something I don't quite understand. In chapter 8 page 293 we make a new function call setHandlers and have an array of events in string format named events. In step 6, the code loops through the array and calls the following code: var checkbox = U.$(events); If I'm not wrong the U.$ is a function in a global object that returns the element for the passed in Id (the code in my U.$ function after checking for type string is return document.getElementById(id)). Now later in step 7 the code checks if the checkbox is checked like so: if (checkbox.checked) etc. Now after reading some materials online, I still don't understand how it is we can get a reference to the checkbox by passing in the name of an event to the U.$ method. Everywhere where I have read, the method accepts only the name of an element, so how is it that when we pass in an event name say 'mouseover', that we get a reference to the checkbox, so we can check if it is checked etc. I'm new to Javascript, so if I've made a mistake in the above explanation, I apologise. Thank you all in advance.
