Hello @codeca423.

You cannot define an event listener in JavaScript console and apply it as HTML attribute like that. I recommend you use addEventListener method instead.

document.getElementById('bedrooms').addEventListener('change', changeddl);

function changeddl() {
   document.getElementById("divprice").innerText = (this.value > 0?("price: $ " + this.value):"");
};

And don’t pass this as parameter to the event listener. The first parameter to the event listener is the event object.
