Here’s my latest attempt. A couple of questions.
1. When I create the button, I set data_email to the email address.
But when I add the event listener, I getAttribute on data-email. Is there some
magic that transforms data_email to data-email?
2. I’m missing the lesson on creating new line characters in strings. \n
doesn’t seem to work.
3. How do I tell email to use my clr at apache.org address?
Thanks,
Craig
