12,012 PointsWhen I run my code this page breaks down. Can anyone help me out solve the problem??
I just need to figure out what I am doing wrong here
//Select the naviagation
var navigation = document.getElementById("navigation");
//Select all listItems from the navigation
for(var i = 0; i < navigation.children.length; i++){
var listItems = navigation;
listItems[i];
}
//When a navigation link is pressed
var linkListener = function() {
console.log("Listener is clicked!");
}
var bindEventsToLinks = function(listItem) {
//Select the anchor
var anchor = listItem;
//Bind the linkListener to the anchor element (a)
anchor.onclick = linkListener;
}
for(var i = 0; i < listItems.length ; i++) {
bindEventsToLinks(listItems[i]);
}
