Click Events
Click Events
An event listener stores behaviour for later. The browser calls your callback when the event happens, so the DOM should stay unchanged until the click occurs.
That timing is the point of event-driven code. If you call the handler while registering it, the page changes during setup and nothing is left for the actual interaction.
Your task: Select the save button and status message. When the button is clicked, update the status text to show that the draft is saved.
