I don't understand what they want...

Based on the previous video isn't this what they want?

let section = document.getElementsByTagName('section')[0];

section.addEventListener('click', (e) => {
  if(e.target.tagName === 'input') {
  e.target.style.backgroundColor = 'rgb(255, 255, 0)';
     }
});

I apologize if this is not correct, but do you think it could be a syntax error? The last closing parenthesis after the curly brace before the semi colon?

Your'e close, but tag names are always stored internally in upper case. So check for "INPUT" instead of "input".
