bad87fee1348bd9aedf08820	Turn an Image into a Link	0	https://scrimba.com/p/pVMPUv/cRdBnUr	18327

Description

You can make elements into links by nesting them within an a element. Nest your image within an a element. Here's an example: <a href="#"><img src="https://bit.ly/fcc-running-cats" alt="Three kittens running towards the camera."></a> Remember to use # as your a element's href property in order to turn it into a dead link.

Instructions

Place the existing image element within an a (anchor) element. Once you've done this, hover over your image with your cursor. Your cursor's normal pointer should become the link clicking pointer. The photo is now a link.

Tests

tests:
  - text: The existing <code>img</code> element should be nested within an <code>a</code> element.
    testString: assert($("a").children("img").length > 0);
  - text: Your <code>a</code> element should be a dead link with a <code>href</code> attribute set to <code>#</code>.
    testString: assert(new RegExp("#").test($("a").children("img").parent().attr("href")));
  - text: Each of your <code>a</code> elements should have a closing tag.
    testString: assert(code.match(/<\/a>/g) && code.match(/<a/g) && code.match(/<\/a>/g).length === code.match(/<a/g).length);
