8,940 Points(Asynchronous JS) How Many People Are in Space project - View astronauts not working
Running into an issue with the astronauts in space project. The sections with the astronauts information doesn't appear when I click the button. Any suggestions?
'''JavaScript const astrosUrl = 'http://api.open-notify.org/astros.json'; const wikiUrl = 'https://en.wikipedia.org/api/rest_v1/page/summary/'; const peopleList = document.getElementById('people'); const btn = document.querySelector('button');
// Make an AJAX request function getJSON(url) { const xhr = new XMLHttpRequest(); xhr.open('GET', url); xhr.onload = () => { if(xhr.status === 200) { let data = JSON.parse(xhr.responseText); console.log(data); } }; xhr.send(); }
// Generate the markup for each profile
function generateHTML(data) {
const section = document.createElement('section');
peopleList.appendChild(section);
section.innerHTML =
<img src=${data.thumbnail.source}>
<h2>${data.title}</h2>
<p>${data.description}</p>
<p>${data.extract}</p>
;
}
btn.addEventListener('click', () => getJSON(astrosUrl)); '''
