I tried replicating the atom files you have and added in my own var and tried to log it out. I got undefined instead of the content, why is that? Here is the screenshot: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B_UVfS1QFwg7V3hPaFNPMG5EMTA/view?usp=sharing
Hey Jon!
The reason is that getElementsByTagName returns an array.
Anything that has “elements” with the plural “s” returns an array, even if there is only one object in that array.
So if you did this it would work:
var jon = document.getElementsByTagName( 'h1' )[0];Does that explain it?
