Help with Twitter Button - Quote Machine - SOLVED

1

Hi! I need help with Twitter Button. Here is my code for the quote machine http://codepen.io/Ddorab/pen/YpoQom and I think the problem must be here:
$("#tw").click(function(){$(“a”).attr(“href”, “https://twitter.com/intent/tweet/?text=” + " " + qarr[x][0] + " " + " - " + qarr[x][1]);
}); …
But I can’t figure it out.
Thank you!!!

You’re so close. All you have to do is use jQuery to get the quote text from the div and assign it to a variable. See below:

$("#tw").click(function(){
    var Quote = $("#quote").text();
    var Author = $("#author").text();
  $("a").attr("href", "https://twitter.com/intent/tweet/?text=" + " " + Quote + " " + " - " + Author);
  });

You have to get rid of the button tag on line 22 of your html. It’s not actually being used for anything.
