You need to update button2 and button3 as you did for button1.

Do you have a question or error?

3

Thanks for your reply. I had already done what you suggested.

Every thing is working in the preview panel, but validation will not accept my code.

5

you need to keep editing the same function, so that all three buttons change when going to the store

I have the same problem, the code works when you play with the preview, however, you just cannot move on to the next step

The instruction turns out to be the problem. It wants that both button2 and button3 are put in the goStore function

Try throwing button2 and button3 innerText into the goStore function

Thanks for your reply.

I’ve tried that… Setting the innerText of all 3 buttons in each function (resetting the 2 buttons that were not clicked to their initial values (from HTML).

Works in preview but validation says " You should update the innerText property within your goStore function."

function goStore() {
    button1.innerText = "Buy 10 health (10 gold)";
    button2.innerText = "Go to cave";
    button3.innerText = "Fight dragon";
}
function goCave() {
    button1.innerText = "Go to store";
    button2.innerText = "Buy weapon (30 gold)";
    button3.innerText = "Fight dragon";
}

function fightDragon() {
    button1.innerText = "Go to store";
    button2.innerText = "Go to cave";
    button3.innerText = "Go to town square";
}

reset the step and change only the goStore function as described

Thanks for your help. I was getting ahead of myself!

Back on track now. Thanks again.
