I tried the code below, and I couldn't get it to work. It also made the click event quit working. (And yes, I plan to make a function to update the headline.)
if (headlineInput === document.activeElement) {
document.addEventListener('keypress', (e) => {
if (e.key === 'Enter) {
headline.textContent = headlineInput.value;
headlineInput.value = '';
}
}
});
}

9,380 PointsI was able to figure it out after a little more trial and error. Here is what worked for me:
const headline = document.getElementById('headline');
const updateHeadingBtn = document.getElementById('btn-main');
const headlineInput = document.getElementById('main');
updateHeadingBtn.addEventListener('click', () => {
headline.textContent = headlineInput.value;
headlineInput.value = '';
});
headlineInput.addEventListener('keypress', function (event) {
if (event.key === 'Enter') {
headline.textContent = headlineInput.value;
headlineInput.value = '';
}
});
