Courses Plus Student 3,555 PointsDear Gabriele Borghesi,
Input stores value, and anchor tag has textContent or InnerHTML. So i thinks you should write like this: aText.textContent= inputValue ;
(instead of inputValue = aText.value;)
''' let inputValue = document.getElementById('linkName'); inputValue = inputValue.value; let aText = document.getElementById('link'); aText.textContent = inputValue;'''
