Learn Basic JavaScript by Building a Role Playing Game - Step 67

Tell us what’s happening:

Describe your issue in detail here.
Finally, update the text.innerText assignment to equal the text from the location object. However, instead of using bracket notation, use dot notation.

Here is an example of accessing the name property of an object called person:

person.name

What is answer? in function update(location)
I tried different ways and cant solve it

Welcome to the forum @totsamyiandy

For this step, update what is assigned to the text .innerText property.

Use the code in the function as a guide.
Make sure to use dot notataion.

Happy coding

It not pass validation

Please reset the step to restore the original code.

Then update the code on the right hand side of the equals sign.

Answer:
text.innerText = location.text = “You are in the town square. You see a sign that says "Store".”;

text.innerText = location.text = “You are in the town square. You see a sign that says “Store”.”;

‘’’ hello !
You just need to cut of the text from the innerText propriety and replace it with location.text ….don’t add a new property ! Just this :
innerText = location.text;

That will solve it !

Happy code :wink:
