Tell us what’s happening:
Having a hard time figuring out why this code doesn’t work I am not able to type anything i looked at others peoples code and the hint and I am just not understanding why this doesn’t work any help would be appreciated!

Your code so far


class ControlledInput extends React.Component {
constructor(props) {
  super(props);
  this.state = {
    input: ''
  };
  // change code below this line
  this.handleChange = this.handleChange.bind(this);
  // change code above this line
}
// change code below this line
handleChange(event) {
  this.setState({
    input: event.target.value
  })
}
// change code above this line
render() {
  return (
    <div>
      { /* change code below this line */}
      <input value = {this.state.input} onchange = {this.handleChange} />
      { /* change code above this line */}
      <h4>Controlled Input:</h4>
      <p>{this.state.input}</p>
    </div>
  );
}
};

Hello there

Remember: Event callers are not the same in JSX as they are in HTML/

Answer:

Use onChange not onchange
