DOM - 5 stages, I got to 3rd stage and completely lost.

Really just feel like it's not sticking together for me...

I been on this long time before and now I came back after renewing my knowledge in other areas and still can't get through the DOM. Does anyone know of any easier training material for the DOM.

Appreciate any feedback as I really want to learn..

Hi Jason!

These might help:

https://www.w3schools.com/js/js_htmldom_navigation.asp

https://javascript.info/dom-navigation

https://zellwk.com/blog/dom-traversals/

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bkc7AUQ6uU4 (I like Derek Banas videos, in general - he tends to talk fast and therefore does NOT drone you into unconsciousness, the way a lot of other code tutorials tend to!?! LOL)

I hope they help.

Stay safe and happy coding!

There is also this, if you haven't seen it:

https://teamtreehouse.com/library/practice-traversing-the-dom

Found this, also:

https://code.tutsplus.com/courses/javascript-fundamentals/lessons/dom-traversal

This you would have to buy this (but it's on sale right now for $11.99*):

https://www.udemy.com/course/javascript-dom-course/ (Udemy courses are generally very good. I have taken several, especially on topics that either Treehouse doesn't cover at all or I wanted to go deeper than Treehouse covered on the subject, or I just felt I wanted a fresh perspective on the subject. Getting your info/education from several resources is prudent, I think. No single tutorial can cover everything!?!)

Again, I hope that helps.

Stay safe and happy coding!
