This is not a bug.
In your code you are targeting the PARENT of the div with the ID left-well. Thus, you are targeting the div with the class col-xs-6.
Since you’re targeting the left-well ID using the parent() selector, you’d want to target one of the children within that ID.
For example, the code:
$("#target1").parent().css(“background-color”, “red”)

I could not get it either.
I was overthinking this one. Simply put #target1 into the parent() instead of left-well like this:
$(“#target1”).parent().css(“background-color”, “red”)
#target one’s parent is the div it is inside.
