So this happens quite often to me. The test should give a pass but instead I get some exceptions… In this case I got back :
Your code should get the element with class message and change its textContent to “userName loves cats”
it does that.
Your code should use the send method.
I used the send method.
P.S this wasn’t the original code I changed it as close to the example as possible just to let the code pass.
Your code so far
<script>
document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', function(){
document.getElementById('sendMessage').onclick = function(){
const userName = document.getElementById('name').value;
const url = 'https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/posts';
// Add your code below this line
const xhr = new XMLHttpRequest();
xhr.open('POST', url, true)
xhr.setRequestHeader('Content-Type', 'application/json; charset=UTF-8')
xhr.onreadystatechange = function () {
if (xhr.readyState === 4 && xhr.status === 201){
const resp = JSON.parse(xhr.response)
document.getElementsByClassName('message')[0].textContent = resp.userName + " loves cats"
}
}
xhr.send(JSON.stringify({ userName: userName }))
// Add your code above this line
};
});
</script>
