14,380 PointsChallenge asks for an empty second parameter, but I keep getting a Bummer: You didn't use an addEventListener error msg!
I've tried everything to provide an "empty" second argument on this challenge. What am I doing wrong?
const warning = document.getElementById("warning");
let button = document.querySelector('button');
button.addEventListener = ('click', ( ) => {
console.log();
});
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>Adding an Event Listener</title>
</head>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="style.css" />
<body>
<div id="warning">
Warning: My background should be red!
</div>
<button id="makeItRed">Make It Red!</button>
<script src="app.js"></script>
</body>
</html>

I would double check the syntax for adding an event listener. Good luck!

7,332 PointsHey Paul! You don't need an equal sign between addEventListener and the parenthesis. I hope it will help you keep up the good work buddy.
