Treehouse TeacherHi there, James Roberts! This is how the element name is returned. This is a quote from MDN:
For DOM trees which represent HTML documents, the returned tag name is always in the canonical upper-case form. For example, tagName called on a <div> element returns "DIV".
Here is the documentation for Element.tagName
Hope this helps!
