Tell us what’s happening:

Hi there. The winnerMsgElement isn’t updating… I wanted to see if this approach worked as this was my way of thinking but I see that other people use the ternary operator.

Your code so far

<!-- file: index.html -->


/* file: styles.css */


/* file: script.js */
// User Editable Region

const playerScoreSpanElement = document.getElementById("player-score");
const computerScoreSpanElement = document.getElementById("computer-score");
const roundResultsMsg = document.getElementById("results-msg");
const winnerMsgElement = document.getElementById("winner-msg");
const optionsContainer = document.querySelector(".options-container");
const resetGameBtn = document.getElementById("reset-game-btn");

function showResults(userOption) {
  roundResultsMsg.innerText = getRoundResults(userOption);
  computerScoreSpanElement.innerText = computerScore;
  playerScoreSpanElement.innerText = playerScore;
  if(playerScore === 3) {
    winnerMsgElement.innerText = "Player has won the game!";
    resetGameBtn.style.display = "block";
    optionsContainer = "none";
  } else if(computerScore === 3) {
    winnerMsgElement.innerText = "Computer has won the game!";
    resetGameBtn.style.display = "block";
    optionsContainer = "none";
  }

};

Welcome back to the forum @fraserrobbie2

Try playing a game. See what happens to the options when a game is won.

Happy coding
