Challenge question
On line 3 of app.js, select all images in the footer element and assign them to footerImages.
let footerImgs = document.querySelector('footer'); let footerImages = footerImgs.querySelectorAll('a');
why can't I use document.querySelector('footer') to select the footer tag and then use footerImgs.querySelectorAll('a') to select all the links inside the footer.
Challenge question
On line 3 of app.js, select all images in the footer element and assign them to footerImages.
let footerImgs = document.querySelector('footer'); let footerImages = footerImgs.querySelectorAll('a');
second try
in the console when i run document.querySelector('footer > a');
the console prints: NodeList(2) [a, a]
i have already tried footerImages = document.querySelectorAll('footer > a')[0]; didn't work.
let footerImgs = document.querySelectorAll('footer > a'); let footerImages; for (let i = 0; i < footerImgs.length; i += 1){ footerImages[i] = document.querySelectorAll('footer > a')[i]; }

But your code is selecting all the links (a) in the footer element instead of the images (img).
Fix that, and your first try will work.

Courses Plus Student 16,751 PointsThis line will select all images in the footer element (whether they are direct descendants or not) and assign them to the variable footerImages
