task 2 ID temperature

I'm having trouble with this task, even thought it looks pretty simple. I don't know where to add the element id: Now you'll add programming to the callback function: you'll display the current temperature of the city you picked. Start by using jQuery to select the element with the ID of temperature.

Hi josefina,

If you check the html you'll see that there's a span with an id of "temperature". So the challenge wants you to select that element so that you'll be able to insert the temperature into that span in the next step.

You can do that in jQuery with $('#temperature');
