Hi @GrzeluD,
you could store the displayed quote in a seperate variable (i.e quote) and then pass that variable into the twitter link
var quote;
function randomQuote() {
var randomNumber = Math.floor(Math.random()*(quotes.length))

document.getElementById(‘quoteDisplay’).innerHTML = quotes[randomNumber];
quote = quotes[randomNumber];
}

$("#getMessage").click(function(){
var textToTweet= quote;

  var tweetLink = 'https://twitter.com/intent/tweet?text=' + quote; encodeURIComponent(textToTweet);

window.open(tweetLink,’_blank’);});

Thank you a lot! It’s working. I was trying to use var textToTweet=quotes[randomNumbers] but it was bad idea :stuck_out_tongue:. One more time Thanks !

After looking at dozens of codepen for this assignment, trying to get the Twitter feature to work, yours finally made sense to me.

Thanks!
