I see, thanks.

Thanks for your help!

Do you mean that I should just declare them and leave them empty until I assign them later, like this…?

var jon1, jon2, jon3;

var jon1 = document.getElementsByClassName("content")[0];

var jon2 = jon1.getElementsByTagName("article")[0];

var jon3 = jon2.getElementsByTagName("a")[0];

console.log (jon3.innerHTML);

OK I’ve moved back to this thread and looked through your jsbin answer and I totally get it now. However, I tried your next question and got an error. I know I’m very close but cannot figure out what I am getting wrong: https://jsbin.com/suqorexele/edit?html,js,console

[Jonathan Shyman]

yes, I believe I have it now!

So when I looked at the answer I realized I was not there since I had not really studied the video on innerHTML. I just started working on it, and on my first try am already having issues. I’ll open a new thread with my error log, and once we sort that out, I’ll come back here and work on your additional example.

So I tried for about 20 minutes or so but didnt get very far, this was as far as I came up with: JSBin

[Jonathan Shyman]

So I think I get it. Just to see the contrast, could you code out the same example without querySelector to see the difference? I think it would help to see the advantage with a side by side comparison, thanks!

Mika,
If you are using Chrome, you can use this extension as a temp solution:
