18,899 PointsArrow function not working
Anyone would know why if i use an arrow function instead of an anonymous function declaration, the callback inside de eventlistener will not run? See below for code:
//this works
document.getElementById("begin-game").addEventListener('click', function() {
game.startGame();
this.style.display = 'none';
document.getElementById('play-area').style.opacity = '1';
});
//this doesn't
document.getElementById("begin-game").addEventListener('click',() => { game.startGame(); this.style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('play-area').style.opacity = '1'; });
